Police have arrested four people following a series of incidents in Goornong, Echuca and the surrounding areas on 28 August.
A man in his mid-40s located three unknown offenders inside a shed on his property in Hanrahan Lane, Fosterville about 11.30am.
The offenders fled the scene in a grey Toyota Prado, which was stolen earlier that morning from Echuca.
The victim followed the offenders in his black Amarok utility along the Goornong-Fosterville Road, before it was involved in a collision with the stolen Toyota Prado.
It is believed the offenders exited the Toyota Prado and assaulted the victim, before taking off again in the victim’s Amarok.
The victim sustained minor injuries.
It is believed a fourth person collected the offenders in an unregistered white Holden Cruze and drove to the Waranga Basin and, with the assistance of Air Wing, police swarmed the area.
The Holden Cruze rammed a marked highway patrol vehicle to escape before officers swiftly intervened and arrested and all four occupants.
The highway patrol officers were not injured.
The victim’s Amarok was recovered in the Corop area.
A 34-year-old Kyabram man, 33-year-old Kangaroo Flat man, 27-year-old Cranbourne woman and 38-year-old Tatura woman are all currently in police custody.
Anyone with information or anyone with CCTV/dash cam footage is urged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report at
