A Routine Drive Turned Into a Nightmare After a Sh-o-cking Road Rage Confrontation—Police Reveal Disturbing Details
A golf club has been used as a weapon in a violent road rage attack in Melbourne, leaving the victim with severe bruising and his car undriveable.
Police allege the victim was travelling through roadworks on the Melton Hwy, between Banchory Ave and Calder Park Dr, in Sydenham about midday on Saturday when another vehicle slammed into the back of his car several times.
Once clear of the roadworks, the shaken driver pulled over — and the alleged offender did the same.
According to police, he then got out of his vehicle armed with a golf club and allegedly struck the victim in the leg and smashed his windscreen before driving off.
The Caroline Springs man was taken to hospital with severe bruising, and his vehicle — left undriveable — was towed from the scene.
Investigators have now released images and CCTV of a man they believe may be able to assist with their enquiries.
He is described as being of Pacific Islander appearance, about 180cm tall, heavy set, and wearing a red long‑sleeve top, dark shorts and thongs.
Police are urging anyone who recognises the man or witnessed the incident to come forward.
