A separate man, also known to the injured woman, arrived after hearing about the collision. According to the report, he mistook the people helping for those involved in the crash and confronted them. The helpers tried to leave, but the man allegedly chased their Rexton and rammed it several times as he followed them through Cloverdale, Belmont and Redcliffe.
The pursuit reportedly ended on Hardey Road in Belmont. Police arrived shortly afterward and arrested the 30-year-old Belmont man, PerthNow reported. The article does not say whether the helpers or child were injured.
