Over in Australia, machetes will be removed from shop shelves in the coming days after a violent gang brawl forced a busy shopping centre into lockdown. 

Shoppers were left terrified after a conflict by rival gang members armed with machetes at Northland Shopping Centre in Melbourne's north took place over the weekend.

Australian correspondent Oliver Peterson says Victoria Premier Jacinta Allan announced the ban would take effect from noon on May 28 - and fines and jail time would be enforced against retailers who don't comply.
