The incident happened after a bottle was thrown near McDonalds restaurant on Wells street.

A gang of four Caucasian men was spotted at the scene.

Senior Constable Glenn Paxton said “you could see flames coming from the under carriage of the car. Once we had them out I grabbed a fire extinguisher from our patrol car and put the flames out.”

Browne was taken to the Alfred hospital with head injuries, however it is unknown what his condition is at this stage. Weinstein was conscious but has suffered a broken arm.

Both victims do not know the group of men.

The operation has led to an investigation, anyone with information is urged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
