A 26-year-old Calwell man will face the ACT Magistrates Court today following an intentional collision in Monash yesterday (Wednesday, 26 August 2020).

The collision occurred after the man approached a female, a former work colleague of the man, at an Isabella Plains work place while in the possession of a large knife. The female and a work colleague left in two vehicles.

The man followed the two females in his own vehicle through Isabella Plains and Monash. When the two females stopped at a set of traffic lights the man intentionally collided with their vehicles, heavily damaging and immobilising all three vehicles, and damaging a fourth vehicle.

Police attended the scene of the collision and seized two large knives from the man’s vehicle, and arrested the man.

The man will face the ACT Magistrates Court today (Thursday 27 August 2020) on possession of an offensive weapon, stalking and use of an offensive weapon dangerous to a person.

Bail will be opposed, and police anticipate laying further charges regarding the collision once investigations have concluded.
