‘Shock’: Man leaps on woman’s car
A woman driving home at night had a disturbing encounter with a man who allegedly jumped on her bonnet and smashed her windscreen with his fists while she was on her way home from work.
It happened about 7.30pm on Saturday in a southeastern suburb of Brisbane, 9News reports.
The woman turned onto Freeth St West in Ormiston when a man allegedly jumped out in front of her car.
The driver, who wished to remain anonymous, said she saw a man and woman walking on the road and they appeared to be arguing.
She slowed down and tried to drive around them, but the man stood in her way.
He jumped onto her bonnet and “punched the windscreen several times”.
“It happened so quickly, it was a shock,” she said.
The woman alleges the man also tried to get inside her car through the passenger door but it was locked.
“I couldn’t speed off because the woman was behind the car and if I reversed I could’ve hit her,” she said.
“I couldn’t go forward because the car detected a person in front and stopped.
“I couldn’t move the vehicle forward until he jumped off the bonnet, that’s when I took off.”
The driver immediately drove to Cleveland Police Station, with a “shattered” windscreen that fell on her and cut her hands.
“I couldn’t see a thing in front of me, I really don’t know how I got home that night,” she said.
Queensland Police are investigating the incident.
