Four dead, more than 20 hurt when driver ploughs into Australian pedestrians


Police eventually rammed the car and shot the 26-year-old driver in the arm, before dragging him from the vehicle and arresting him. Police said the man had a history of family violence and was wanted over a stabbing earlier in the day. Pursued by police cars, the man had been seen driving erratically before speeding into a pedestrian mall, ploughing into people, police said. "We're not regarding this as a terrorism-related incident,” Victoria state police commissioner Graham Ashton told reporters on Friday. Police had earlier chased the driver, who was wanted over a domestic assault and driving offences, Ashton said.
