Police claim to have foiled a Christmas Day terror attack in the heart of Melbourne.
Terror plotters allegedly planned to attack Melbourne’s Flinders Street Station, Federation Square and St Paul’s Cathedral.
Heavily armed police raided homes across Melbourne’s north on Friday morning and made several arrests.
The raids were conducted in Flemington, Meadow Heights, Dallas, Gladstone Park and Campbellfield.
Chief Commissioner Graham Ashton said police had been watching the alleged plotters for some time, and believed they were preparing a multi-mode attack.
“Over that last fortnight that has accelerated,” Mr Ashton told reporters on Friday. - The Australian

People from Melbourne wouldn't be surprised by the suburbs named.
