SYDNEY: Australian police charged a man Tuesday with throwing an “explosive device” with nails and ball bearings into a crowd of thousands at an Indigenous rights rally. Police alleged that the 31-year-old man removed the device from his bag and threw it from a walkway into a crowd of more than 2,000 people in Perth, Western Australia, during the protest on Monday. Thousands rallied for Indigenous peoples’ rights on Australia’s national holiday, Australia Day, which marks the 1788 arrival of a British fleet in Sydney Harbor.

The incident took place during a rally supporting Indigenous rights, which coincided with a national holiday.
