A pedestrian was struck by a stolen car in Sydney’s CBD after the vehicle collided with two other cars, including a police vehicle. The incident occurred around 9 PM on Thursday when the car was reportedly stolen from a woman in her 20s at the intersection of King and Pitt streets.
After stealing the Mazda sedan, the driver crashed into another vehicle and a stationary marked police vehicle before hitting a woman in her 50s at the corner of George and Market Streets. The woman sustained a head injury and was taken to the hospital in stable condition.
Police apprehended the 36-year-old suspect at the scene. He was taken to St Vincent’s Hospital for mandatory drug and alcohol testing under police supervision. The driver is expected to face charges later today.
