Police mark another wanding milestone with operation in city mall
Queensland police marked a milestone under Jack's Law on Thursday, conducting wanding operations at Brisbane's Queen Street Mall using handheld metal detectors to scan passersby without warrants. Since the legislation expanded last year, nearly 127,600 scans have seized over 1,000 weapons including knives and machetes, leading to approximately 2,000 arrests. The law honors 17-year-old Jack Beasley, fatally stabbed in 2019.
