It's March 11th, here's your Sydney news in two minutes. A man who called himself far-right allegedly crashed a Muslim community dinner in Ballarat, Victoria, shouting death threats and punching guests. The 37-year-old threw racial slurs like death to Muslims and intimidated children at the event. Police arrived at the scene, interviewed the man who was being held by attendees, and simply told him to move on with no arrest. This happened despite reports of punches to the face and neck grabs. The attack has left kids traumatized, and community leaders expressed disappointment over the slow response from authorities. Victims only got asked to give statements at the Ballarat station three days later. Now the investigation is ongoing, with police saying they are looking closely into the matter. Officials confirmed no charges yet, but stressed they will keep digging. Federal Minister Tony Burke slammed the behavior as unAustralian and plans to raise it with the Australian Federal Police. Victoria and Premier Jacinta Allen offered support to the community and vowed to fight

rising Islamophobia with stronger laws. The Daily News Now is presented by our sponsor, head in, sound on, lights out. That is the routine, S-O-L-I, solelypillow.com
