Attempted armed robbery in Alderley, QLD

Detectives have released vision of a man that may be able to assist after a woman was seriously assaulted in Alderley on Monday, December 24.

At 6.15pm a 19-year-old woman stopped her car outside a residence in Goskar Avenue in Alderley.

A black Mazda CX5 then stopped near her and a man got out of the passenger door and demanded her car keys. The woman refused, and the man hit her in the face with the butt of a gun.

The woman’s father came out from the house and told the man to leave. The man then threatened him with what is believed to be a rifle.

The driver of the Mazda CX5 then reversed into the father causing him to fall to the ground.

The man then got back into the CX5 and it drove off. The man is not known to the woman.

The woman was transported to the Wesley Hospital where she remains with facial and eye injuries. Her father received minor injuries to his legs.

The CX5 was stolen from a Fitzgibbon residence at 11.15am on Monday and at 12.45pm the same vehicle left a service station on Great Barrier Road at Brisbane Airport without paying for fuel.

The vision released shows a man at the service station who may be able to assist police with their inquiries.
