A HEAVY police presence has prevented a repeat of last week's mob violence in the troubled Rosemeadow housing estate in southwestern Sydney, but two women were charged over a brawl that left one of them with a broken nose.
Despite fears among police and community elders that there could be further rioting in the area, the confrontation between the two women on Macbeth Way late on Saturday evening was the only violent incident over the weekend.
The women, aged 19 and 40 respectively, were charged with affray. The 19-year-old was also charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm and common assault. Police said the older woman was walking past a party being held at a neighbour's house on Macbeth Way when she was confronted by the younger woman.
