Police have charged a man following two alleged serious assaults in Caroline Springs late last night.
Officers were called to reports of a man allegedly acting erratically, damaging cars and wielding a machete out the front of an address on Hopetoun Green about 10pm.
On arrival, police were alerted to two people injured.
A 54-year-old man and a 24-year-old woman, both from Caroline Springs, were transported to hospital with serious injuries.
Officers on-scene negotiated with a second man who allegedly refused to exit a nearby property.
Police cleared the area around the property to maintain public safety.
The man was arrested after he came out of the property, allegedly surrendering to police about 11.30pm.
A 21-year-old Caroline Springs man was charged with two counts of intentionally cause injury, two counts of criminal damage and one count of affray.
He was remanded to appear before the Bail and Remand Court today.
