Nunawading Highway Patrol officers are appealing for public assistance following a collision involving a stolen vehicle and two motorcycles in Doncaster on Saturday.
It is understood a stolen grey Renault Megane mounted a roundabout, and deliberately rammed a motorcycle, near the intersection of Council Street and Roseville Avenue about 4pm.
The rider, a 26-year-old Ringwood man, was knocked off the motorcycle and was not injured.
The stolen Renault continued to drive northbound on Council Street with the motorcycle wedged beneath the vehicle.
The Renault then struck a second motorcycle, causing the rider to fall to the road.
The rider, a 22-year-old Ringwood man, was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
The stolen Renault fled the scene and was located a short time later dumped in a reserve on J J Tully Drive in Doncaster.
It was reported to police that the driver of the stolen vehicle was male, Caucasian in appearance, approximately 180cm tall with a medium build.
He was wearing a white or grey shirt and blue jeans.
An image of the stolen Renault has been released in the hope it will assist the investigation.
Investigators are appealing for residents in Council Street and JJ Tully Drive to check their CCTV.
Police believe that the Renault was stolen from a Hoppers Crossing address in late January.
Anyone who witnessed the collision, has dashcam footage/CCTV or information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or www.crimestoppersvic.com.au
