![Gang violence not welcome in Huntly, as locals speak out
A violent gang brawl has broken out in broad daylight on Main Street in Huntly, terrifying the public.
Police received multiple calls from onlookers who saw the altercation unfold between two rival gangs.
Witnesses on social media describe carloads of Black Power and Mongrel Mob gang members involved in the fighting, which reportedly began outside a bottle store before spilling onto the highway.
It was a scary sight, the cars were fully of them like each car had five-plus patched members in them. Police everywhere, one person wrote.
A witness told Newshub around 20-30 people in blue were attending a funeral in town when the Mongrel Mob arrived.
A carload of red-coloured gang people turned up and a really bad fight broke out, he says.
But they didnt realise how many [Black Power] were here. The red people got a bit of a beating and they left.
The witness, who didnt want to be named, says one Mongrel Mob gang member received a pretty bad hiding and had to be carried to a car.
I saw a lot of blood coming out of his face, he says.
Police were called and established a heavy presence to control the situation. They were just in time, as the Mongrel Mob came back in force for retaliation. Gang violence not welcome in Huntly, as locals speak out](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zqn0xb99hWc/mqdefault.jpg)
