Slams security response.

A woman who attended Groovin The Moo in Canberra over the weekend claims she was urinated on at the festival and has since slammed the response from security present on the day. 

According to ABC, Joana Perkins took her 15-year-old son and nine-year-old daughter to the music festival where she claims a "drunk or high" male urinated on her. 

"We were enjoying ourselves when I noticed a man come up behind me and I thought I sensed something that he was fiddling with his penis and unfortunately I started feeling urine running down my leg," Perkins said.

"I turned around and he had his penis out and was weeing on me, at which point I grabbed him by the arm and said 'you're coming with me' and moved him away from where we were.

"Two guards came over and asked me what happened and I said 'this guy's just peed on me' and you could see the pee marks and they took the guy away.

"Now obviously I had wee down my leg and a crying nine-year-old and I wasn't going to hang around so I headed out to the exit with my son and carrying my daughter."

Perkins alleges that she witnessed the security guards laughing about the incident as they let the man walk away without caution. 

"I wasn't heading out to check on what the security guards were doing, but what I noticed is that they were laughing, patted the guy [who] was absolutely over-the-top inebriated or high and let him go off on his merry way," she said. 

Perkins further claims that one of the security guards assured her the man had been kicked out of the festival after she confronted them.

"At which point one of the security guards looked at me extremely aggressively and said 'If you don't shut up you'll be chucked out'," Perkins said.

Perkins also accused a female security officer of telling her that she was "at fault" for taking her children to the festival.

The news comes on the back of a 15-year-old punter being hospitalised for an alleged drug overdose at the Groovin The Moo event in Maitland.
