The 45 adults and 14 juveniles have been jointly charged with Unlawful Procession, Malicious Acts, Disobedience of Lawful Order, Throwing stones and Criminal Intimidation.

They were taken into custody with the assistance of the Republic of Fiji Military Forces officers on Monday.

Eyewitnesses reported that men and youths from Sukanaivalu Road and others from other areas came to Mead Road Housing and stoned a number of houses and some people.

This also resulted in a brawl involving the men and youths from Mead Road Housing and Sukanaivalu Road.

Police say two adults and a juvenile were injured, treated and sent home.
