Hooning, Bundaberg
A man has been issued with a Notice to Appear for hooning after a video depicting a vehicle performing a burn out outside the Bundaberg Police station was posted online.
Police were alerted to the video earlier today which depicted a vehicle pulling up out the front of the station on Bourbong Street.
It will be alleged that a passenger poured a liquid onto the road before the driver smoked the vehicle’s tyres, made a lot of noise and took off at speed.
Police subsequently undertook enquiries and the driver and owner of the vehicle were identified.
A 19-year-old Walkervale man has been issued with a Notice to Appear in the Bundaberg Magistrates Court on August 22 for a type one hooning offence (undue noise and smoke).
The vehicle has also been impounded for 90 days.
A 17-year-old Bundaberg North has been issued with a $400 traffic infringement notice for pouring injurious matter on a roadway.
Investigations are continuing in an effort to identify anyone else who may have been involved in this offence.
