Teens armed with knife, scooter charged over Rockingham Shopping Centre fight

Three teenagers have been charged over an alleged fight with another group of youths at Rockingham Shopping Centre.

The trio allegedly got into a physical alteration with the group around 3.50pm on Monday, January 5.

During the altercation, one of the accused — an 18-year-old man— allegedly drew a knife in an intimidating manner.

A 14-year-old boy also allegedly swung a scooter at members of the group.

An 18-year-old from South Fremantle and a 14-year-old boy from Beeliar have each been charged with being armed in a way that may cause fear and disorderly behaviour in a public place.

A 16-year-old girl from Beeliar has been charged with disorderly behaviour in a public place.

The investigation is ongoing and anyone with any information relating to this incident is urged to contact Crime Stoppers online at www.crimestopperswa.com.au or by calling 1800 333 000.  Reports can be made anonymously.

It comes just days after a man was arrested when he jumped onto the counter of a bubble tea store at the same shopping centre armed with coffee machine portafilters.

He was tackled by a member of the public and detained by security guards before police arrived.
