A man is fighting for life after an alleged assault at a Logan short-stay property descended into chaos, leaving a home damaged, multiple cars wrecked and an entire street locked down for much of Sunday.
Emergency crews were called to Discovery Blvd at Bahrs Scrub at 2.16am on Sunday after reports of what police described as a “large disturbance involving a group of people”.
By the time officers arrived, the aftermath stretched across the street.
In a statement, police said they got to the scene within eight minutes and found “significant damage had been caused to a number of vehicles on the street, as well as damage to a residence”.
The property is believed to have been operating as a short-stay accommodation, with nearby residents saying a party had been underway before violence broke out.
As the scene unravelled, police said some of those involved had already scattered.
“As members of the group fled the scene, officers were alerted to a 21-year-old Redbank Plains man having been located nearby on Orchard Ave with significant head injuries,” the statement said.
The injured man was taken to Princess Alexandra Hospital in a critical condition, where he remained on Sunday night.
Residents reported seeing disorder spill through the estate, with some stating they believed two groups had been involved.
Neighbours also described hooning before people fled the area on foot and in damaged vehicles.
Footage from CCTV appears to show a man running away from the scene down the street at about 2.47am.
Police and forensic officers remained on Discovery Blvd through Sunday as they examined the damage and gathered evidence.
Several vehicles were left with smashed windows and dents, while a nearby home also suffered shattered windows.
Neighbours said they believed the front of the house had been badly damaged and the interior ransacked.
SES crews also searched nearby parkland as part of the ongoing investigation.
Police are continuing to investigate and have urged anyone with information or relevant vision to contact Policelink.
