In videos which emerged on social media, three teenagers girls were seen in an alleged assault at a Lomond Cres park while adults can be heard giving fighting tips.

The fight allegedly spills out into another part of the park with an adult woman allegedly attacking another woman who was trying to defend herself and her son.

A Queensland Police spokesman said two teenage girls were dealt with under the Youth Justice Act for the incident while a woman in her 30s was issued with a caution for common assault.

Sergeant Gleeson encouraged any members of the public who witnessed any of these alleged attacks and further incidences of youth violence to contact police.

It comes as Instagram pages emerge glorifying more alleged youth violence in schools and in bus stops.
