Paramedics treated the 36-year-old woman at the scene before she was airlifted to Liverpool Hospital in a critical condition.

Detective Chief Inspector Paul Albury said a verbal argument allegedly occurred between a couple inside a car parked outside before escalating inside a home. 

It will be alleged that while inside the home, the 36-year-old male smashed a TV and then struck the woman in the head with a glass vase, causing abrasions and lacerations.

Chief Inspector Albury said the woman called Triple Zero (000) and ran out the front of the house to seek help.

He said the man then allegedly entered a Mazda sedan and allegedly reversed and ran over her before fleeing.

After a search of the area, police located and arrested a 36-year-old man at a phone box in Camden Valley Way. 

He was taken into custody at Narellan Vale Police Station.

Chief Inspector Albury said the man was expected to be charged later this afternoon. 

Police are appealing for anyone who has information that may assist investigators — or anyone with dashcam vision — to come forward.
