A 10-year-old child is among four people killed in what has been described as a ‘deliberate’ car rampage.

 

Dimitrious ‘Jimmy’ Gargasoulas, 26, reportedly drove his car into a crowd of shoppers gathered on a street in Melbourne, Australia.

 

A further 25 people are said to have been injured, with five of those being treated for ‘life-threatening’ injuries.

 

 

Among the injured is a two-year-old child, who is now in intensive care.

 

Gargasoulas is said to have driven his Holden Commodore into the crowd, leaning out of the window and shouting at the crowd gathered.

 

CCTV footage from local business shows people running into shops, seeking refuge as the driver performed doughnuts in his car.

 

 

Witnesses claim that Gargasoulas was shouting ‘f**k the world’ as he carried out the terrifying act.

 

After ploughing through the crowd, Gargasoulas drove his vehicle for a further two blocks before being apprehended.

 

Bystanders report hearing gunshots before seeing Gargasoulas being pulled from his vehicle and given medical treatment.

 

A local police commissioner confirmed that the suspect had previously come to their attention ‘on many occasions in the past’.
