147 Arrests!

 

Drug sniffing dogs helped police make 147 arrests at Sunday's Big Day Out music festival at the Gold Coast Parklands. Making their first appearance at the annual event, the sniffer dogs led to 52 arrests on drug-related matters, mostly for possession of ecstasy or marijuana. Police laid a total of 172 charges on Sunday.

 

A police spokeswoman said arrests for possession of drugs was down on last year, when 81 faced drug-related charges. A further 308 concert-goers were evicted from the venue, mainly by security personnel, she said. The Big Day Out next plays Sydney on Friday before moving to Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.
