A man is due to front court today (Tuesday 21 November, 2023) accused of a carjacking at Bennetts Green.
It's alleged the man got into the driver's seat of a car parked on Groves Road at about 2.30pm on Sunday before driving off towards the Pacific Highway with a one-year-old child asleep in the backseat.
He stopped the car in a nearby car park and fled - the child was not harmed.
Following extensive inquiries, police arrested a 27-year-old man at a home on Cherry Street at Windale at about 3.00pm on Monday.
He's been charged with unlawfully take motor vehicle with person in it, take and drive conveyance without consent of owner and being an unaccompanied learner driver.
The man's been refused bail to face Belmont Court today.
