While not a pleasant subject, Rapid Creek - our suburb has been among the infamous and topical today.
It seems that two people argued last evening and a man apparently hit a woman over the head with a nulla-nulla [ big wooden stick] which seems to have caused her death. At least that is how the media is reporting the incident.
We were past the area - just about 150m from our house twice this morning in the car, relatively early, at about 0800hrs and again around 0900hrs, with nothing seen. Then a few hours later the area was roped off, and police everywhere. It may be they were just treating the area as the crime scene, and doing some more forensic work.
The area is in scrub near Rapid Creek itself, an area commonly used by people for card games and drinking, hiding in the scrub areas where the Police are unable to easily see people. We have some local laws prohibiting drinking in public within 2 kilometres of licenced premises [ this is about 1km or a tad more].
