BREAKING! Police Break Up Protest At Adamstown

BY IAN CROUCH

Police have been called to a protest demonstration at Adamstown.

Police say about 50 people gathered outside The Foundary building site off Brunker Road just before 7.00am.

It's believed the group were members of the CFMEU protesting over their claim for a 15% pay rise from a Canberra-based formwork company.

Officers arrived a short time later to break up the group - it's not known if any arrests have been made.

Earlier, police dispersed another group of CFMEU members at Huntington Waterfront Apartments site in Honeysuckle - another project being undertaken by the Canberra-based company.
