EXTRA police are being sent to a remote Aboriginal community in Queensland after a series of violent brawls involving up to 150 people.
Mount Isa Police Superintendent Russell Miller says it's disturbing that people have been seriously injured with sticks and rocks picked up from the street during the huge fights in Doomadgee.
He says Mount Isa officers are being sent to Doomadgee to help local police keep the peace and investigate.
"Large-scale street disturbances, involving armed people, result in serious injuries and are just plainly unacceptable to the people of Doomadgee, who deserve to go about their daily business without having to worry about these types of instances," Supt Miller said in statement.
He said police had charged 44 people with offences including assault occasioning bodily harm, assault police, affray and public nuisance.
But Supt Miller also said there could be more charges following further investigations.
"We continue to investigate these disturbances, as well as attempting to counter some of the underlying, and often long-standing, issues," Supt Miller said.
