Beleive so,but little was said on the scanner, no mention of police escort or closeing of traffic lights etc.,...

They had cops at the corner of Joondalup & Shenton this afternoon, directing the bikes around the corner straight into Arena Joondalup.

One lane blocked off.

Also had a pretty hot looking highway patrol car there, was deep blue in colour and the number plate read "DROP5".

I had never seen it before, others may have though
