South Australian police confirmed that the local man was arrested and taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital. "The man is currently undergoing surgery in hospital after he received several cuts to his arms during the incident," police said.
"He will remain in hospital under a seven-day mental health assessment and once cleared will then be interviewed by police over this morning's incident, with charges of property damage and assault likely." The driver and passengers were left ‘shaken’ after the attack, but no injuries were reported.
