Police have charged a man with a string of offences after a woman was allegedly dragged for several hundred metres during an alleged carjacking in Brisbane.
Police say a man and woman had parked their blue Mitsubishi hatchback outside Nando’s in the Buranda Shopping Centre carpark at 7pm on Monday, when the man went inside to collect food, leaving the car running while the woman waited in the passenger’s seat.
It’s alleged an 18-year-old Ellen Grove man then opened the car and sat in the driver’s seat before driving off.
In a statement, police alleged the man pushed the 22-year-old woman out of the vehicle.
“The woman (was) dragged for several hundred metres while the car drove erratically before crashing into a brick retaining wall outside a church in O’Keefe Street,” the statement alleged.
The woman was taken to hospital with serious injuries.
The teenager was charged with unlawful entry of a motor vehicle, robbery with violence, dangerous operation of a vehicle causing grievous bodily harm, deprivation of liberty and unlicensed driving.
He is due to appear in Brisbane Magistrates Court on Tuesday.
Police are appealing for any dashcam footage of the Buranda Shopping Centre between 5pm and 7pm.
Anyone who witnessed the alleged incident or noticed a man acting suspiciously is urged to contact police.
The man is described as aboriginal in appearance, curly hair in a ‘man bun’ style, black shorts, black T-shirt and a black, white and red hoodie.
