Alice Springs man charged over alleged DV assault, hit-run attempt
Police have charged an Alice Springs man who allegedly bashed a woman before allegedly attempting a terrifying vehicular attack on three others.
A man was dealt several charges for allegedly bashing a woman and later allegedly attempting to run over three others in Alice Springs.
Northern Territory Police received reports of a man, aged 25, allegedly assaulting a woman known to him on Gregory Tce about 6.20pm Saturday, moments before he fled the area.
Police alleged a short time after the man drove a car “at speed” towards a group of people known to him on Hartley St, forcing them to run to avoid being hit.
The group — two women, aged 50 and 53, and a man, aged 60 — were not hurt and did not require medical treatment.
Police said the 25-year-old man fled the scene before officers arrived, but was arrested at a home in Gillen later that evening.
He was charged with Acts intended to cause serious harm, Aggravated assault, Engage in conduct that contravenes a domestic violence order and multiple traffic offences.
He was remanded to appear in Alice Springs Local Court on 15 September 2025.
Police urge anyone with information about the incident to make contact on 131 444 and quote reference number NTP2500091744.
