A New Zealand man who lives in Perth has been detained by police in Bali after an incident involving a scooter.
Ngaarda Media reports Matty Isiah, a security guard from Perth, is visiting the Indonesian island, and was arrested early Sunday morning, local time.
Mr Isiah was reportedly coming out of popular night club Engine Room in Kuta when he tried to hail a taxi.
As he was doing so, a scooter reportedly driving on the footpath came into contact with Mr Isiah, and locals crowded around.
A co-worker of his, Regan Jhonson, told the NZ Herald Mr Isiah had "put his arm out and a scooter's ridden up along the footpath and driven straight into his arm".
"Straight away he was mobbed by locals because they thought he had hit the rider."
"He's been arrested for attempted murder."
