Nicholas Carr is being held at Kuta Police Station after allegedly drinking so much vodka and attacking motorists and a man in his home, on the holiday island.
The 26-year-old Adelaide apprentice apologised to his victims and said he would compensate them for all the damage caused.
‘I was very drunk… I apologise, I don’t remember anything at all,’ he said, adding that he’d drank ‘more than ten’ bottles of vodka on the night in question.
‘I just want to apologise to everyone, to the victims, to the Bali people.. to anyone affected by this at all.
‘I remember crashing a scooter.’

Nicholas Carr was seen running toward an oncoming motorbike and jumping up in front of it in Bali in the early hours of Saturday before going on an alleged crime spree
Carr is currently behind bars after he was captured on video allegedly kicking a motorcyclist off his bike and jumping into a moving car.
It’s alleged Carr then smashed two shop windows before he broke into a home and assaulted the owner.
Police have since officially named Carr as a suspect on charges of assault and damaging property.
Both charges carry a maximum two years and eight months behind bars.
Carr will now remain in a police jail cell, pending charges and a trial in Denpasar District Court.
The alleged rampage occurred on Carr’s first night of a 10-day visit to the tourist hotspot with a friend.
The pair spent their first night visiting several bars before things allegedly spiralled out of control.

‘I just want to see my family.’
