At about 4:30pm on Saturday, police were called to the Lollipops
Playland indoor play center in Wetherill Park, following reports of a
brawl.
Police are investigating reports that the altercation started when two
children bumped into each other or had a minor incident on the play
equipment and one of the fathers intervened, pulling a six-year-old
girl's hair.
They said the six-year-old girl then spoke to her father, a 48-year-old man, who approached the alleged hair-puller, who was with a different group, about the incident. Police said the group of men with the father who pulled the girl's hair then allegedly set upon the 48-year-old father and he fell to the ground. Two men from his group, aged 27 and 32, were also allegedly assaulted when they came to his aid.
The attackers then ran from the children's play center and left in their cars. NSW paramedics took to the injured men to Fairfield Hospital for treatment of injuries to the face, head, back and hands. Police established a crime scene which was examined by specialist forensic officers. They have appealed for information from the public about the incident and said an investigation is now underway.
