Horrifying footage has emerged of an elderly woman with a walking frame being thrown to the ground and kicked in the ribs in front of shocked shoppers.
The incident, which unfolded in Geelong, Victoria on Tuesday, started when a 23-year-old woman exchanged words with a person with a walking frame.
After a brief exchange, the 23-year-old is seen on camera approaching the elderly lady with the walking frame shouting if she "wanted to start her".
The 23-year-old then shoves the elderly woman against the wall before pulling her hair and tossing her on the ground.
