FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda A Northbridge trader has urged revellers to show respect to each other after two incidents in the entertainment precinct left one man with part of his ear bitten off and another with suspected head and spinal injuries.
Police were told a 21-year-old man had part of his ear bitten off inside Villa Nightclub on Stirling Street about 2.15am yesterday as officers were breaking up an unrelated fight between two groups outside the venue.
St John Ambulance officers took the victim to Royal Perth Hospital and yesterday he had surgery to reattach a big part of his ear that was found at the scene.
“You have to wonder where they are on the IQ totem pole in terms of getting involved in that sort of event and taking it to that degree,” Insp. Neil Blair said. “It’s bad enough them fighting, let alone latching on to someone’s ear and biting it off.”
About 4.30am, a 29-year-old man suffered suspected head and spinal injuries when he fell or was pushed down stairs at the front of Lackers Grill on Lake Street.
Lackers Grill owner Cheyenne Nguyen said the incidents should not be exaggerated, adding Northbridge was safe and such matters were isolated.
She said all cities had problems but believed Perth’s issues were blown out of proportion because of its isolation.
“Northbridge is great, compared to any other city,” Ms Nguyen said.
“People have no idea because Perth is such an isolated city, so you lose the view of the rest of the world.
“It’s a shame because it’s not true. This is just a few people who are making a bad reputation for a lot of people.”
Ms Nguyen said the injured man was a regular customer who may have had too much to drink.
“It was the first time I had seen (the victim) like this, he’s a lovely man,” she said.
“I think he was celebrating, he went a little bit overboard and someone didn’t take it well. This man is the son of somebody, whoever pushed him is the son of somebody, he came from somewhere.”
Supt Scott Higgins said assault figures from the Perth sub-district had fallen in recent years but there was still a perception Northbridge was a violent precinct.
He urged people to be considerate of others before loading with alcohol and becoming involved in antisocial behaviour while visiting popular entertainment precincts.
Police Minister Rob Johnson said the State Government was concerned society was becoming more violent.
“The Police Commissioner and I will be making an announcement during the week that will tackle crime in general, not just violent crime but including violence that has been taking place at the moment,” he said.
“Once we’ve made our announcement in the week, it will be safer.”
