Aussie Cop Gets Stabbed

Moses Thurairajasingam, 18, had his bail application denied when he appeared in Melbourne Magistrates' Court on Wednesday.

The Cranbourne West teen allegedly lured police to his home in south-east Melbourne by calling triple-0 regarding an aggravated burglary on Tuesday.

Thurairajasingam's charges include assaulting an emergency worker on duty, intentionally causing serious injury, common law assault and making a false report to police.

Police allege the teen made a false report about being assaulted during an aggravated burglary.

The court heard that officers attended the scene, 'believing they were approaching someone who needed their help.

Confronting footage from the officer's bodycam and CCTV from Thurairajasingam's home was played to the court on Wednesday.

The bodycam showed an officer calmly approaching Thurairajasingam before the teen withdrew a 13cm knife from behind his back and allegedly stabbed the officer.

The constable, who had been in the police force for 18 months, sustained a 5cm deep wound to his thigh, which required surgery. https://kaotic.com/video/31a86baf_20240908130702_t
