There were over three hundred protesters at the Doubtful Creek community blockade against Csg Mining near Kyogle in the Northern Rivers. About one hundren Police were in attendance.

Drew Hutton sat in the middle of the road  right in front of the Doubtful Creek drilling site where Metgasco want to drill. and he was arrested  for his trouble.

People from all over the Northern Rivers and including others from surrounding districts have rallied together and have been protesting Metgasco's Drilling operations on the North Coast of NSW at both Doubtful Creek and Avenue Road Glenugie.

There have been many arrests during the course of this action and to date this is close to forty arrests I am told.   Police issued Drew Hutton with a penalty infringement notice.  He was released from custody soon after he was processed.
