The two men, aged 42 and 28, are patched members of the King Cobras gang, a police spokesperson said. The arrests are linked to an attack on three men, including two brothers, at the Cruz bar and nightclub on Victoria St in the early hours of March 21. Today's arrests follow the arrests of three men last Friday in several raids, including one at the Snake Fit Boxing Club in Middleton, which is known as a King Cobras gang pad, and at a Merivale house. The two men arrested today were due to appear in Christchurch District Court this afternoon.
