Aussie bloke killed outside his home after allegedly being mowed down by woman known to him

The partner of a 50-year-old man who died after she allegedly mowed him down outside his home has been charged with his murder.

Bradley Bullock died outside his Stoneywood Street home in Fernvale, 60km west of Brisbane at about 5.55pm on Sunday after he was allegedly hit by a car driven by the 45-year-old woman.

The woman was arrested at the scene and has now been charged with one count of domestic violence murder.

Ipswich District Detective Inspector Mick Manago said the couple were known to police.

‘Police had been to that location previously for domestic and family-violence related matters,’ Insp. Manago said on Monday.

‘Domestic and family-violence related matters are something the QPS takes extremely seriously. We’re very committed to keeping the public safe, so it’s something that I don’t condone and has no place in society.’ 

It comes as neighbours have reported hearing raised voices before the fatal crash, and are believed to have detained the woman until police arrived.

It’s understood they also tried to give CPR to Mr Bullock before paramedics arrived, however it was too late, with the father having sustained critical injuries.

The incident occurred in Fernvale, located 65 kilometres west of Brisbane, on Sunday

‘I was arriving home with my wife and kids, and we got flagged down saying there had been a massive incident just around the corner,’ neighbour Kyle Wilford said.

‘I found the body on the floor and started CPR straight away. Unfortunately, the man had no pulse.’

Mr Bullock’s daughter Bethany Hayes said her family were grappling with the loss.

‘At this point, we obviously have to say goodbye to our father,’ she told the Courier Mail, adding her brother saw the incident unfold.

‘My brother has probably never cried in his life. Definitely not in front of us anyway because, he’s a male, but he called me pretty much hyperventilating and he was wailing.’

More to come.
