No they didn't. It was called the Piazza.

Default Manhunt for 9 men driving a picnic table

http://youtu.be/fuuNrYIKbQ4

Wow, first a motorised eski gets impounded, then this sparks a manhunt. What can I say? With a police force like this, Australia really is the laughing stock of the world... Why bother calling them if your car gets stolen or house robbed, if pursuing people driving a motorised picnic table around is higher priority?
