Table of Contents
A 36-year-old woman is in critical condition after allegedly being assaulted and run over in a horrific act of domestic violence in Narellan Vale, Sydney. Emergency services responded to a call at Maddison Court around 8:30 am on Wednesday, finding the woman with a broken pelvis, internal injuries, and facial abrasions.
Details of the Alleged Attack
According to a senior law enforcement official, the incident began with a verbal argument between the woman and a 36-year-old man inside a parked car. The dispute escalated after they entered a home, where the man allegedly smashed a television and then struck the woman in the head with a glass vase, causing lacerations and abrasions.
The woman, seeking help, reportedly contacted Triple Zero (000) and fled the residence. The man then allegedly pursued her, entering a Mazda sedan and reversing over her before driving away. Responding officers arrived to what was described as a “horrendous” scene.
“It’s a quiet neighbourhood, [people] are obviously stunned by the level of violence displayed,” the official stated.
Arrest and Inquiry
Police quickly launched a search for the suspect, locating and arresting the 36-year-old man at a phone box on Camden Valley Way. He is currently in custody at Narellan Vale Police Station and is expected to be formally charged later today.
Authorities have confirmed the man is known to police, and both individuals resided at the property. Notably, police had not received any prior domestic violence-related calls to that address. Investigators are now appealing to the public for assistance, specifically requesting anyone with dashcam or CCTV footage of the incident to come forward.

Witnesses at the scene reportedly provided aid to the woman before the arrival of paramedics. “A number of witnesses came to the aid of the woman following the incident,” a law enforcement source confirmed.”Those people are obviously deeply shocked by what has occurred.”
The incident has understandably shaken the local community.
