A 27-year-old East Mackay woman has been charged with attempted murder following an alleged traffic incident in East Mackay on January 5.
Police were called to Goldsmith Street at 5.15pm following reports of a vehicle allegedly hitting a 31-year-old South Mackay man and then colliding with a tree.
It will be alleged the woman and man were involved in a traffic disturbance where the woman swerved, cutting the man off shortly before the incident.
Officers will further allege the woman drove her blue Subaru into the man’s blue Ford before striking the man who had got out of his car.
The man was treated at hospital for non-life-threatening injuries and his female passenger was not physically injured.
The South Mackay woman has been charged with one count each of attempt to murder and threatening violence. She is expected to appear before Mackay Magistrates Court today.
Investigations ongoing.
