Men step in after woman attacked in Werribee
A heated confrontation in the middle of Watton Street has been caught on camera, showing punches thrown and threats made during an alleged assault in Werribee on Friday, 11th October.
Witnesses said two men confronted a cyclist after he allegedly struck a woman during an argument on the busy strip. The footage shows a tense exchange escalating quickly, with the men stepping in after seeing the woman allegedly punched.
It is believed the incident began moments earlier when the man on the bike grabbed onto the back of the woman’s car as she drove along Watton Street. After sounding her horn and telling him to let go, a verbal altercation reportedly broke out before the man allegedly punched her several times and broke the side mirror cover of her car.
The woman drove away from the area but later returned to speak with police.
Police officers arrived shortly after the confrontation, speaking with witnesses and reviewing details of the incident. The man involved had already left the scene before police arrived and was not located nearby.
Police are continuing to investigate the incident. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or visit www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.
