Protestors who took part in demonstrations against the Land Forces 24 Expo in Melbourne on Wednesday have been accused of squirting an irritant up the nostrils of some police horses and the visors of some riders. Victoria Police stated that some Mounted Branch members and stable hands had shown signs of skin irritation when washing down horses after their shift, while an assessment of horses on Thursday morning revealed that their symptoms had subsided. Five protestors were arrested during more subdued demonstrations on Thursday, while police are investigating the assault of a conference attendee, who also had urine and faeces tipped on him when he was trying to enter the event.
