The Northern Territory Police Force is investigating following a disturbance that occurred in Wadeye yesterday afternoon.
Around 5:30pm, police received reports of a disturbance occurring on Perdjert Street involving a large group. Upon arrival, officers observed a group of up to 60 people engaged in disorderly behaviour and throwing objects at each other.

Two males later presented to the local clinic for treatment of minor injuries believed to have been sustained during the incident.
Additional patrols were conducted overnight to maintain visibility and provide reassurance to community members.
No serious injuries were reported and investigations into the incident remain ongoing.
