Terrified parents have fled a Melbourne shopping centre with their children after a bloody fight broke out between a group of machete-wielding youths.
The group clashed inside the Woodgrove Shopping Centre at Melton in Melbourne’s north-west at about 5pm on Monday.
Witnesses claim those involved, who were described as teenagers and Sudanese, were armed with a variety of weapons and were seen waving knives and throwing chairs during the melee.
One woman said she fled the centre with her children after spotting a man ‘waving a machete around’.
‘Kids brawling, throwing chairs around … Ran out with my kids and advised everyone walking in to turn around,’ she wrote on social media.
The woman said she was ‘disgusted’ with the group’s actions, coming just days after after six people were killed in a horror stabbing attack at Westfield Bondi Junction last Saturday.
