Dozens of police move in on Bendigo Street squatters

Dozens of police have swarmed two homes acquired for the dumped East West Link project which have been overrun by squatters.

Around 20 squatters forced their way inside the vacant Collingwood homes on Bendigo Street, which have been set aside for victims of domestic violence.

Police removed several people last week.

Around 50 police members moved in on Wednesday afternoon.
