A Melbourne motorist has filmed the moment a police officer pulled his gun on an alleged car thief in a dramatic roadside arrest.
Video captured by Brent Mitchell shows the officer pointing his weapon at a man in the driver’s seat of an orange Holden ute on Racecourse Road, Pakenham, today.
The officer then drags the ute driver from his vehicle, as more police arrive at the scene.
It is alleged the ute was stolen yesterday during a burglary in the town of Beaconsfield Upper, about 13km from Pakenham.
