Women stabbed, struck by auto in Sydney
The women were taken to hospital in a serious condition. The man is at Fairfield Police Station where he is being questioned by police.
POLICE have arrested a man who allegedly stabbed two women and ran them over with his auto in the vehicle park of a southwest Sydney community centre.
Both women are in Liverpool Hospital with serious injuries.
Two women were stabbed and crashed into by a man driving a auto in southwest Sydney.
The centre is described on its website as being a specialist, non-profit organisation that provides “culturally appropriate and cutting edge psychological treatment and support to help people heal the scars of torture and refugee trauma and rebuild their lives in Australia”.
Police allege the man then set upon both women, stabbing them with a knife and using his auto again to hit them before fleeing the scene.
A 34-year-old woman was leaving work at the centre in Carramar on Tuesday morning when a man stabbed her several times in the head and upper body before hitting her with his vehicle, police said.
A crime scene has been established and investigations are continuing. A 41-year-old man was arrested at Cabramatta just after 10.30am.
Police are still investigating what may have motivated the alleged attack. No charges have been laid.
