Car ‘rams two police officers and a car’ near a shopping mall in Melbourne

  • Female driver slammed into officers at Westfield in Airport West on Thursday
  • One officer reportedly sustained injuries to his leg during the collision
  • Two female occupants believed to be inside the car reportedly were arrested


A female driver has reportedly rammed two police officers and a police car at a shopping centre in Melbourne. 

A witness said he saw a car smash into the two officers at the Westfield in Airport West – appearing to injure the legs of one – and then slam into a police vehicle. 

Two women in the car were then arrested, the man claimed.

‘All of a sudden this car comes driving down the ramp and tries to ram through the cop cars,’ witness Chris told 3AW.

‘It was unsuccessful and kind of hit a couple of cops in doing so, then they reversed again and then tried to ram through the middle of the two cop cars again.

‘After that seven or eight cops jumped on the car and tried to smash the windows and pull them out.’

It’s understood the police vehicles were blocking the down ramp at the shopping centre before the woman rammed into them. 

Victoria Police has been contacted for comment.
