  • POLICE made three arrests in Melbourne’s inner east last night during a state-wide operation to reduced anti-social behaviour and crimes against international students.

    More than 75 officers hit the streets, pubs and stations in Stonnington as part of Operation Guardian, which also aims to give police the chance to listen to the concerns of overseas students.

    Victoria Police spokeswoman Belinda Batty said one person was arrested for assault and two for being drunk in a public place.

    Twenty public transport offences were recorded and more than 70 penalty notices were issues for traffic offences.

    The operation has also run in Moreland, Brimbank, Maribyrnong, Dandenong, Melbourne, Kingston and Darebin.
