A 55 year old man has been charged with offences, including assaulting police during a protest against COVID-19 vaccinations and lockdowns held in Brisbane City Botanic Gardens.
Police says the man was arrested and charged after he was found flying a drone in a restricted area, with the matter still being investigated and further referred to the Civil Aviation Safety Authority.
As the crowd walked through Queen Street Mall, some protestors told passersby who wore masks to quote “take them off”.
