Second Man Charged After Stonnington Assault

Detectives from Taskforce Echo have charged a second man today as part of their investigation into a brawl outside a Prahran night club last month.

A 43-year-old Hillside man was arrested today after a warrant was executed at his home address.

He was subsequently charged with affray, common law assault and fail to provide a password.

The man was bailed to appear at Melbourne Magistrates' Court on 9 October.

Police also seized a number of items from his property including a Comanchero Outlaw Motor Cycle Gang nominee vest.

Today's arrest follows an incident about 3.45am on 18 August where a number of people were involved in an affray outside a Malvern Road night club.

A 39-year-old Tarneit man, who is a patched member of the Comanchero OMCG, was arrested last week and charged with common law assault, affray, intentionally cause injury, recklessly cause injury, unlawful assault, use threatening words, fail to notify Firearm Prohibition Order registry of change of address and possess prohibited weapon.

The charges relate to the affray on 18 August and also a second incident in Windsor on 13 August where a store security guard was allegedly assaulted.

Last week police released CCTV of the affray and detectives remain keen to speak to anyone who may have witnessed the incident and can identify those involved.

The investigation remains ongoing.
