Victorian schoolies cause chaos with impromptu parties as police officer allegedly king hit

Dramatic footage shows a group of schoolies causing extensive damage to a restaurant, while in another incident a cop was allegedly king hit.

Dramatic footage has emerged of Victorian schoolies running riot at a Phillip Island venue.

The group were filmed at The Jetty restaurant in Cowes after gathering for a gathering at the venue last Wednesday night.

In the clip, the teenagers climb on tables and dancing on unsuitable flooring that eventually caved in.

Venue owner, Gabrielle Caffieri, said the damage could potentially cause thousands of dollars to fix.

Schoolies gathered at The Jetty venue in Cowes, Phillip Island.

“I think once it got to about seven people (the panelling) caved in, so they fell in and obviously the walls pulled out, and to get out of there they had to kick the door out, so obviously pretty extensive damage,” he told 3AW.

“I’m all for them having fun, but it’s more the wrecking properties … and also the amount of litter. The amount of smashed bottles every morning is unbelievable.”

Teenagers partying on the Mornington Peninsula, south of Melbourne, are having a similarly chaotic time, with one reveller allegedly king-hitting a police officer.

The alleged attack took place after hundreds of young partygoers gathered near the Rosebud Jetty on Monday night.

The 15-year-old boy, from nearby Rosebud, was arrested at the scene and charged with offences including assaulting emergency worker.
