The 20-year-old walked in front of a black luxury style saloon type car near to the side entrance of Central Station in Gordon Street around 8.30pm on Sunday September 17.

After causing the car to brake suddenly, the man then chapped the window which resulted in the driver getting out of the car and kicking him in the ankle before driving away.
