A man has been charged following his alleged brutal attack on another man in Walkervale on September 17.

Police allege a 36-year-old man stopped to talk to another man he knew on Maryborough Street.

The man he was speaking to is alleged to have then caused him severe burns that required treatment at Bundaberg Hospital.

The alleged attacker was not immediately found, but has since been charged.

On Thursday, a Queensland Police Service spokesman said a 35-year-old man had recently been charged with acts intending to disfigure.

The man appeared in Bundaberg Magistrates Court on Monday where he faced that charge as well as two charges of contravention of a domestic violence order (aggravated offence).

He was released on bail and ordered to return to court on December 9.
