Traffic offences, the Valley and Brisbane City
Police became aware of a large group of young people riding dangerously on scooters throughout the Valley and the city this afternoon.
They were heading towards Kangaroo Point.
At times, those involved were riding the wrong way down the road and were weaving in and out of traffic.
It appears as though the ride was organised via social media.
Preliminary information suggests that police were not advised of this so-called event prior to it happening.
A number of people have been arrested.
The crowd at Kangaroo Point is now dispersing.
Police have been liaising with parents who have been arriving at Kangaroo Point to collect their children.
Investigations are continuing.
