For anybody who's interested in a chronology, timblair.net has some information. He's a conservative Aussie blogger.

Short version: Muslim ("Lebanese" in local slang) gangs have been harassing people at that beach for weeks, calling the women "whores" and smacking around boyfriends, with no real police attempt to stop it. Then they attacked lifeguards. You do NOT screw around with the lifeguards on Aussie beaches. The Aussies decided to take back their beaches, and in the midst of that were some of the local yobs and morons who decided to take things four or five steps further and start attacking anything that looked Arab (including women) and attacking an ambulance with some injured people inside.

Meanwhile, the brave Muslim beach jihadis were in another part of town smashing car windshields.

"Racial tensions erupted into running battles"

Still can't quite seem to bring themselves to the point of actually delving into the reasons behind the racial tensions, can they?

The violent clashes followed weeks of rising racial tension in the beachside suburb, which is popular with thousands of Middle Eastern families from Sydney’s mainly ethnic outer areas at the weekend. Locals have accused some of them, particularly visiting Lebanese youths, of being disrespectful to white women and other beachgoers.
