When the protesters moved on to the field adjacent to Prince George Drive, where there was a battle between land invaders and police in 2018, they were warned to disperse by riot police who were monitoring the crowd from close by.
The crowd disperses peacefully after a community leader read out their memorandum of demands and handed over a copy to city officials.
