Melbourne had a number of home robberies and carjacking on Sunday night, which police believe were linked.
Around 08:40 on Sunday night, four men broke into a house in Bentleigh and attacked a 39-year-old man and a 32-year-old woman.
One of the suspects, armed with a knife, stole jewelry, computers, handbags and a black BMW from the owner.
The suspect escaped from the scene and hit the guardrail of the Wset Gate Highway.
When a passing car tried to park to help the suspect, he found that the suspect wanted violence to open the door. A man and a woman in the car immediately stepped on the throttle and quickly left and abandoned the stolen black BMW not far away.
Just after 9: 00 p. M., there was another carjacking at Melbourne port.
