We don't really have street violence in Dunedin, so twenty teens being involved in a mass brawl in the main street outside Mickie D's is notable.
Cops located the teens nearby, but an unrelated, 67 year old, irritating pensioner gets in police faces and is arrested. Old guy pushes a cop and it's all on. Old guy tries to strangle a cop, another cop fires pepper spray into the fracas taking out the perp as well as three of their colleagues.
Guess who'll be getting a refresher course in pepper spray 101?

A Dunedin man maintains name suppression while facing charges of rape & sexual violation. The only published facts are that he's "a prominent Dunedin man" who's "aged in his 30s".
That word "prominent" is always intriguing.

One more photo from the family album. This one is titled, "Temperance Procession" and was taken in 1922 by my Great Uncle. I suspect the photo is taken in South Road, Caversham, near Laing Street. (My family back then were staunch Methodists. For years my grandfather wouldn't even play cards on a Sunday, but in his old age, he relented. He and I spent many an hour playing cribbage on his Sunday visits to our home in the late 1960's.)
