 Okay, thanks very much for coming along today. My name is Gary Watts, GA double RY, WA double TS, I'm a detective inspector and the officer in charge of Task Force Hydra. Just to let you know, I'll only be speaking about the incidents that occurred this morning and I certainly won't be answering any questions in relation to the application that was made by or made on Friday at the Supreme Court. I'll just read a short release and then open some questions in relation to what happened this morning. At about 4.10am this morning, four possibly five gunshots were discharged into the Bandito's clubhouse on Stanley Street at Woollengabba. Damage was caused to a window and also an awning and also some damage to a restaurant nearby. Approximately eight minutes later, further gunshots were discharged into a tattoo parlor in Park Road at Milton and that tattoo parlor has links with the Bandito Outlaw Motorcycle Gang. Damage was again caused to windows off the premises and also some internal damage. At around 4.35am, a motor vehicle was detected by police on patrol, totally engulfed in fire at Mount Coot-tha. The vehicle is a Mazda 6 sedan and at this stage we have been unable to ascertain the identification details on that vehicle. We are currently investigating to see whether these incidents are linked and the Queensland Police Service has established a task force, codenamed Kilo Cajun, C-A-J-U-N, to investigate these offences. I'll now open for questions. I don't believe so at this stage. Our inquiries in relation to that are still ongoing. We're still canvassing both areas. That's a matter for the investigating detectives. It's unknown at this stage, both premises have been a subject of scientific and ballistic examination. I'm not too sure. Have you recovered any? I don't know at this stage. The premises are undergoing scientific and ballistic examination at the moment. Again, it's a little bit hard to say at this stage, but it's my understanding that a large calibre or solid shot was possibly used in these incidents. And at the Tatoo Parlor? Yes, the Bandido's outlaw motorsock, okay. At this stage, yes. I'm not going to go into the exact details of those links, but suffice to say that I can tell you that they have links with the Bandido outlaw motorsock, okay. It's a concern, obviously. These sorts of acts occurring in public places will not be tolerated by the Queensland Police Service. And where possible and where sufficient evidence exists will be putting offenders before the courts. Is there a concern? I don't know whether it's escalating or not, but certainly these offenses are of concern to the police. Is there anything out of retaliation? It's unsure. You know, these things have a tendency to deal with a tit for tat for times, but whether there's going to be any retaliation for this particular set of circumstances is unknown. I'll consider very carefully whether it's worthwhile. As I said before, and I've said in the previous media releases, if we can gather sufficient evidence, we'll be putting the offenders before the courts. Look, that's certainly a course of inquiry that we'll be looking at to see whether this incident or these incidents have anything to do with incidents we're currently investigating. Oh, look, at this stage, we have no idea who's behind these current incidents. I'm not aware of that, no. Look, that's still under investigation. At this stage, we have been unable to link those incidents. But we're certainly looking at that. Well, obviously, the first two have bandito, outlaw motorcycle ganglinks, and then a vehicle totally consumed by fire a short distance away is something that we look at as a matter, of course. Approximately eight minutes, yes. Look, we'll be looking at all avenues in relation to that. Well, Task Force Hydra is made up of personnel from State Crime Operations Command. The Task Force Kilo Cajun will consist of Task Force Hydra investigators and also investigators from the Metropolitan North Region, the Metropolitan South Region and Operation Support Command Police. Although they'll be joining with Kilo Aquarius, which is a previous investigation for the offences in April, and we'll be looking at the whole raft of offences. Well, most certainly a valid concern is that innocent persons and innocent persons property becomes a victim of these type of offences. Because we saw that on the golf course. That's right, that's exactly right. I think any criminal organisation should be on notice, if they want to continue with these sorts of acts of criminality. Not offhand though. It's my understanding that the tattoo parlor has links with the centro chapter of the bandidos, whereas the clubhouse is the clubhouse of the Brisbane City bandidos chapter. I'm unsure of that at the moment. I'll probably only go too much into what they have to say, other than that these days they are cooperating with the investigators. Of course they are cooperating with the bandidos from different chapters. What as committing these offences? At this stage we have no idea who committed these offences, so we'll be looking at all options in relation to that. We certainly will be seeking public assistance in that regard. As committing these offences, well as I said we don't know who committed these offences, so we're looking at all avenues. No, I won't go any further into that. And you consider this a drive by shooting, like they were shooting someone in the car probably going past firing, going on the next purpose? I can't answer that question at this stage. You don't know? No, I don't know. Was it a triple in calling? I don't know about that. I mean, do neighbors report hearing it? I don't know the exact details of the reporting to be the job. I can certainly find that out, but I don't know if you... Given the tip of that nature that you mentioned, is that something when you actively, I guess, mourn against retaliation or is it just a given? No, we seek to have dialogue with the members and explain to them what our thoughts are in relation to that. Whether they take heed of that's a matter for them. Will you be stepping up patrols around your own larger clubhouses? Well, it's certainly an option available to the service, yes. Or do you fear that no clubhouses will be targeted in the new days? It's an unknown. It's the current headquarters? Clubhouse, yes. It's the clubhouse of the Brisbane City chapter, yes. Okay. Do you think any of this is linked to this framework? I have no idea. I know you think you haven't identified the last six that was found without that map group, but are you able to say yet whether it's stolen? Not at this stage, no. That vehicle is the subject of scientific examinations. And at this stage, we can't exactly establish the identification details of that vehicle. Okay. Thanks very much. In relation to this matter, at this stage, we're just examining the scenes. As the investigation progresses, obviously, we'll be looking at all those options to identify the offenders. I don't know. It really depends on the work volume of the scientific ballistic officers. But we'll be certainly asking for this to get back as soon as possible. I'm not going to go into the exact details. Suffice to say that Metropolitan North Region, Metropolitan South Region, and Operation Support Command personnel will be assisting Task Force Hydro staff. Are you aware that there is some stolen property allegedly by the bandit? You notice it's been released through government and police stations today? Or is it for camper trailers that were taken from the private island? No, I'm not aware of that. Do you know how many people are in the bandit? It's not something I'm going to get into. Is it as big as, say, that Gold Coast? It's not something I'm going to release here. Okay. Thanks very much for your talk.
