A One Nation staffer is hospitalised after an alleged assault at Brisbane’s Ekka (Royal Queensland Show). Multiple reports say the person, described as in her 60s, is treated at hospital following the incident.
Police accounts reported by outlets describe an attack in which the staffer is spat on and punched. One report also says she suffers injuries including a broken rib and is admitted for treatment.
The coverage focuses on the allegations and the staffer’s injuries, but does not present details that are clearly consistent across all accounts about who was responsible or what led to the confrontation. Both outlets attribute the attack to the same incident at the Ekka and report similar descriptions of the alleged violence, including spitting and punching.
