Police have charged a man following an alleged criminal damage incident in Point Cook on Thursday 12 February.
Officers responded to reports of a 43-year-old man allegedly damaging the front door of a property on Hyde Park Terrace at about 1.15pm.
Footage posted to social media shows a man striking the security door with an axe, a machete and then cutting through it with a chainsaw.
A resident of the property, a 35-year-old man, was inside the house but was not injured.
According to police, it is understood the parties were known to each other.
Police will allege the 43-year-old then left the scene and damaged a number of vehicles parked nearby on Friar Park Place.
The man from Point Cook has since been charged with two counts of causing criminal damage, two counts of assault with weapon and two counts of unlawful assault.
He was bailed to appear before Wyndham Magistrates’ Court on 30 April.
