what happened in bourke street today

Today in Melbourne's Bourke Street Mall, there was a police pursuit involving a stolen BMW that was driven erratically through the CBD starting from the Eastern Freeway in Doncaster around 12:30 pm. During the pursuit, a female pedestrian was struck on Exhibition Street and was taken to hospital with non- life-threatening injuries. The vehicle was eventually abandoned on Bourke Street Mall, where four teenage occupants—aged 15 to 17—fled on foot but were arrested shortly after on Lonsdale Street. The incident caused considerable alarm among shoppers, recalling memories of a previous tragic event on Bourke Street in 2017, but police have assured there is no ongoing threat to the public. The scene has since been cleared and the vehicle towed away.
