Kensington, NSW: Onlookers stunned in alleged stolen Coles truck crash
Onlookers were left stunned when a man allegedly rolled a stolen Coles truck on a residential street in Sydney’s eastern suburbs.
A man has been charged after allegedly crashing a stolen Coles truck on a residential street in Sydney’s eastern suburbs.
Police allege the truck collided with two parked cars before rolling onto its side on Day Ave, Kensington at about 6.20pm on Saturday.
The incident caused residents in the area to pour out onto the street, with members of the public allegedly stopping the 32-year-old driver as he tried to walk away from the scene.
Police allege the man then kicked a police officer twice in the chest after his arrest, and tested positive to both drugs and alcohol in a roadside breath test.
The 32-year-old was taken to Maroubra police station and underwent secondary testing.
He has since been charged with take and drive conveyance, drive with low-range PCA, fail to exchange particulars after a crash, never licensed person drive on road, assault police officer in the execution of duty, and breach of bail conditions.
The man was refused bail to appear before Parramatta Local Court on Sunday.
