Gang rivalries persist despite tougher laws - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)
Gang rivalries persist despite tougher laws - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation): "Bikie gang rivalry was linked to a car bombing in suburban Adelaide earlier in the year.
Now police say they are concerned that a dispute between the Hell's Angels and a street gang known as the New Boys could put more people at risk.
Outside an Adelaide church on Monday, more than 100 members of the Hell's Angels gathered for the funeral of one of their own.
The church at Thebarton in the city's inner west was overflowing and many of the mourners dressed in leather spilled onto the footpath.
They came from across Australia to farewell a key Sydney-based Hell's Angel member, George Petropoulos, who died of a heart attack.
He was also a suspect in the shooting deaths of three Rebel bikies in Adelaide in 1999.
The case against him later collapsed.
The peaceful service was a far cry from gang rivalries unfolding on Adelaide's streets, the latest violence in Hindley Street in the early hours of Monday."
