Two held as residents condemn gangsterism

WHILE hundreds of Helenvale residents called for an end to gangsterism yesterday, police arrested two men in connection with four gang-related murders in the northern areas.

The suspects, aged 25 and 23, cannot be named until they appear in court. The murders occurred in the past two weeks.

In the same area as the arrests, the Helenvale Save Our Children Campaign was launched at the Helenvale Resource Centre.

Concerns about pupil and teacher safety have seen two schools in the area, Helenvale Primary and Hillcrest Primary, close their doors. - Lee-Anne Butler and Gareth Wilson
