A 36-year-old man has been charged over the alleged abduction of a 22-year-old woman in Thornlie overnight.
The woman was a passenger in a Toyota Camry that was driving on Spencer Road, Thornlie, about 9pm last night. A Mazda convertible pulled alongside the Camry, and the driver allegedly used a baseball bat to smash a rear window.
The accused man then allegedly dragged the woman from the car and put her in the backseat of his Mazda before speeding away on Spencer Road.
Police spotted the car about 2.30am on High Road, Riverton, sparking a 20 minute high speed chase through Perth’s south-eastern suburbs.
The chase ended when the Mazda crashed into a set of traffic lights at the intersection of Albany Highway and Wharf Street.
The woman was taken to Royal Perth Hospital and treated for injuries she received throughout the course of the night.
The man, aged 36 and from Midvale, was charged with deprivation of liberty, aggravated assault occasioning bodily harm, receiving, steal motor vehicle and drive recklessly, criminal damage, fail to stop, two counts each of reckless driving and fail to stop.
The man is due to appear in the Perth Magistrate’s Court on Monday.
