Dec. 18 (UPI) -- Sydney police have detained seven men in a suburb Thursday with officers reportedly ramming a car and detaining the men after a tip about a planned "violent attack."
The arrests came just a few days after 15 people were killed on Bondi Beach in Australia at a Hanukkah gathering.
The seven men were believed to be traveling from Melbourne to Bondi. The intercepted cars had Victoria plates, which is the state that includes Melbourne, 550 miles from Sydney.
"At this point in time, police have not identified any connection to the current police investigation of the Bondi terror attack," a New South Wales police press release said.
