A young man has faced court hours after an alleged late-night rampage which ended in police tasering him twice while he was naked.
Footage filmed by shocked bystanders shows Puhi Clark, 23, wearing nothing but socks while surrounded by police in Perth‘s busy nightclub precinct in Northbridge on Saturday night.
Dozens of stunned revellers watched on as Clark allegedly attempted to open the door of a stationary Uber and try to enter the vehicle with the driver still inside.
Astonishing footage appears to show Clark on top of the driver, grabbing the steering wheel with both hands while surrounded by police and bystanders attempting to drag him out of the rideshare vehicle and detain him.
A male officer fired his Taser at him before Clark allegedly struck his female colleague in the head and face, who suffered minor injuries.
Clark then allegedly took a swing at one of the officer’s male colleagues and a member of the public before running down the street with a handcuff still attached to one of his arms.
