Gold Coast hoon bashed by good samaritan
Two Gold Coast hoons reportedly crashed their black Ford into a woman’s Honda SUV on Township Drive in Burleigh Heads, then tried to flee the scene.
But an onlooker who saw it all unfold stopped and viciously intervened as one of the youths tried to escape – all while other bystanders praised his wild actions.
Video footage of the scene shows the two men sitting in the wreckage as the woman filming confronts them.
