A woman has been found with multiple stab wounds in the boot of a car after breaking the tail light and waving hoping a motorist would see her in the NSW Southern Highlands. Good for her she got her hand out of that tail light and a truck driver spotted it. Great job all concerned, really. Bravo the woman in the boot, the truck driver and the cops for acting quickly.
The driver — an 18-year-old woman — and her passenger — a 24-year-old woman — are being questioned by detectives at Southern Highlands Police Station.
Police said the truck driver spotted a hand protruding through the tail light of a white Holden Commodore travelling south on the Hume Highway at Pheasants Next.
It took highway patrol officers 20 minutes to track down the car and rescue a 24-year-old woman from the boot at Berrima.
"Some excellent work done by the motorist who identified the hand coming out of the vehicle and they subsequently notified police and we can't thank the motorist enough," Detective Chief Inspector Brendan Bernie said.
