A Gold Coast man has been charged with several offences after he was “acting aggressive” with a knife at a retail store.

Police were called to a Lutwyche Road in north Brisbane electronics store around 4.35pm on Sunday after a 21-year-old Coomera man was allegedly acting aggressively inside the business.

A police spokesman said he left the store and jumped into an allegedly stolen sedan with a 39-year-old Mount Gravatt East woman.

Police allege the car was stolen from an Underwood home on January 26.

The pair fled in the car and allegedly were driving dangerously before crashing into another car at the intersection of Gympie Road and Murphy Road in Chermside around 4.50pm.

The couple in the other car who were a 69-year-old man and a 67-year-old woman were not seriously injured.
