Four protesters have been charged after being accused of forcing their way into Brisbane businesses and assaulting staff.
Police said a group of protesters entered a Tingalpa business on January 8, causing damage to a workshop.
The group allegedly assaulted staff, deliberately spilled paint, destroyed documents and wrote graffiti.
Nine days later police said a protest group - including some involved in the alleged Tingalpa incident - forced entry into a Brisbane CBD business, again assaulting staff and causing damage.
Four people have been charged with a total of 15 offences including unlawful assembly, assault and wilful damage.
"Whilst the QPS acknowledges it is important that people have the right to peaceful protest, police will take action against any unlawful behaviour," a police statement said.
A man and a woman, both aged 25, are expected to appear in Brisbane Magistrates Court on February 20.
A 59-year-old woman and a 42-year-old man are set to appear in Brisbane Magistrates Court on January 24.
