John Wayne Kellermeier, previously of Scott Street, Cobden, did not apply for bail in the Warrnambool Magistrates Court on Monday during a bail/remand hearing. 

He was remanded in custody to reappear in court on November 14.

A solicitor said Mr Kellermeier had been diagnosed with bipolar and she requested a nurse see him after he suffered a head injury while in police custody.

Previously, 8am: A FORTY-YEAR-OLD man who drove at a member of the public trying to help him, trashed his own car and resisted police will appear in Warrnambool court on Monday.

Warrnambool police Sergeant Callum McKinnon said the man had been on bail after trashing his public housing home on August 30 and was due to appear in court on Monday.

On Saturday after about 1.30pm the man was driving down  Pertobe Road in a white ute when items started falling out the back of the ute.

A woman stopped to pick up some of the items.

The ute driver pulled over, the woman approached him with the goods and the man drove straight at her.

The woman had to take evasive action to avoid being hit.

The ute driver then drove off and soon after parked on the Raglan Parade median strip between Liebig and Kepler streets.

The same woman approached the ute driver again, who urinated on the ground near her.

By the time police arrived, the man had got back into his car and used his fists and head to smash windows from inside of the vehicle.

He was instructed to get out of the ute, refused and was then assisted out of the ute.

The man also declined to do an alcohol breath test.

Police checks revealed the ute was unregistered, had false registration plates and the man was an unlicensed driver.

The 40-year-old was taken back to the Warranmbool police station where he arrived at 2.40pm.

He continually resisted police, misbehaved and caused damage by headbutting a plaster wall.

The man was later remanded in custody by a bail justice to appear in the Warrnambool Magistrates Court on Monday for a bail/remand hearing.

He was charged with reckless conduct endanger serious injury, a range of driving offences, causing criminal damage and offensive behaviour.

In Portland, police attempting to pull over a black Holden ute late on Sunday afternoon were unsuccessful.

At 5.40pm officers saw the ute heading north on Madeira Packet Road carrying false  registration plates.

They attempted to intercept the vehicle, activating emergency light and the siren but the ute driver refused to comply and drove off.
