Wedding crashers had ‘intent to kill’

Wedding guests in Perth have been attacked, and overrun by dozens of gate crashers, who tried to smash their way into the reception

A PADBURY couple's dream of a perfect wedding were crushed when a gang of youths attacked their wedding guests in Perth's southern suburbs last night.

A WA Police spokeswoman said guests at a reception party in Bicton for newlyweds Bevan and Stacey were assaulted by 50 youths, who turned violent when refused a cigarette.

"The intent in their eyes was to kill someone," Bevan told Ten News.

Police allege a small number of youths had requested a cigarette from guests outside the Point Walter Cafe early last night, but were rejected.

The spokeswoman said about 50 dark-skinned youths aged between 16 and 22-years-old then returned to the venue about 9pm and started a brawl with guests.

"My brother went out to pick up Stacey's brother and when he was over him trying to roll him over, one of the guy's jumped up on the table with a couple of bricks and said 'You're gonna die," Bevan said.

The group then tried to force their way into the cafe and hurled bricks, injuring seven guests including the groom.

"My sister, she got hit in the head with a brick, the other one she got glassed across the leg and my old boy, my Dad he got punched in the face just for trying to calm stuff down.

"If it wasn't for the staff there, we'd be going to a funeral."

Guest Ange Pitch was assaulted by a group of girls in a toilet block before she was dragged along the ground.

"It was just a mob, a mob mentality, no care for anybody else," she told Ten News.

"They were out to inflict as much pain and suffering not only on the people but also on property," Ms Pitch's partner, who was also attacked, said.

Police say the youths left before officers arrived.

Four men and three women were taken to Fremantle Hospital for treatment.

The spokeswoman said police will review CCTV footage which captured the incident.

Anyone with information should call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
