A FRANKSTON man received a compound fracture of the arm after a car was allegedly driven deliberately at him in his own front yard.
Police said the man heard a car in the driveway of his Burns St unit on the night of Wednesday 8 March and went to investigate.
He recognised the driver and, after words were exchanged, turned to walk back into his unit. The driver then allegedly drove at the man twice, knocking him into a garden bed and causing extensive injuries, before driving off.
The driver, 38, also of Frankston, was later arrested in Chapel St, Prahran, and charged with reckless conduct endangering life, recklessly causing serious injury, and a weapons offence.
The driver is also facing property damage charges after allegedly breaking into the unit the day before and smashing a window before setting fire to blinds.
He has been remanded in custody to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court in April.
