The meet allegedly began in Port Melbourne where more than 600 hundred people had gathered before the crowd moved to Chapel Street.

“Officers issued infringement notices to several drivers who chose to engage in hooning activity,” a police spokesperson said.
“A number of defect notices were also issued in relation to modified vehicles.
“In an effort to disrupt hooning behaviour and assist with traffic congestion on Chapel Street, road closures were implemented for a short time.”
