Two police officers have been issued with an infringement notice relating to COVID-19.
The Southern Region sergeant and senior constable have each received a $1,334 fine for failing to comply with a COVID-19 direction issued by the Chief Health Officer (CHO).
Police will allege the off-duty officers were among a number of people who failed to comply with the social-distancing rules by attending an outdoor gathering in an East Toowoomba street on Sunday afternoon.
A third person has also been issued with an infringement notice. Investigations are continuing to identify another 12 people believed to have attended the gathering.
The QPS continues to enforce the directions of the CHO as we work to reduce the spread of COVID-19.
We urge everyone to follow the public health directions, employ social distancing practices and avoid unnecessary travel so we can limit the spread of COVID-19.
