NZ Police: Motorcycle Protest Peaceful, Orderly
Police say motorcycle riders at a Wellington protest have been orderly and no arrests made.
"The protesters
have been well behaved today and we have not had to deal
with any serious incidents," says District Road Policing
Manager, Inspector Peter Baird.
"We've worked
alongside organisers and community partners in the lead-up
to this event to minimize disruption and safety risks.
Given the large volume of people involved, we're very happy
with the way things have gone".
Inspector Baird also
thanks the Wellington public for their patience during the
motorcycle convoys from Porirua and Lower Hutt into
Wellington City this morning.
There were no traffic
delays after the protest as people made their way out of
the
city.
