An Australian lawmaker is in critical condition after being struck by a car in what Prime Minister Anthony Albanese called an "attack."
Independent MP Helen Haines was "attacked outside her electorate office" on Monday afternoon in Wangaratta, north-east of Melbourne, Albanese told reporters.
A suspect is in custody.
The counter terrorism units have been activated but a motive remains unknown.
"It is too early in this investigation formally to provide you with details about what the motivation is behind this attack," Albanese added.
