50 AC/DC arrests 'not bad'

Police yesterday arrested 50 people in Wellington following AC/DC's show on Saturday night, mostly for drunk and disorderly behaviour.

Inspector Mike Coleman said the number was "not bad, [for] a full moon and a nice hot night", given a typical Saturday night brought about 30 to 40 arrests.

During the gig police arrested nine people at Westpac Stadium and a further six were evicted.

Six ambulances assisted people with alcohol or drug-related issues.
