Western Australia (WA) police officers have interrupted a church service to enforce rules requiring mask-wearing indoors.

Perth churchgoer Matthew said he had attended evening mass at St Bernadette’s Glendalough church on Thursday, Feb. 3, but was left shocked after police paused the service to ask every attendee to put on a mask—or leave.
