Puhi Clark: ****** man in Northbridge tasered and charged with police ********, disorderly conduct

A 23-year-old man has faced court after police were forced to taser him while allegedly on a ****** rampage through Northbridge on Saturday night, including allegedly hitting a female police officer and attempting to carjack a vehicle.

Puhi Clark faced Perth Magistrate’s Court on Sunday charged with disorderly behaviour in a public place, obstruct police officers, ******** public officer and one count of attempting to steal a motor vehicle.

Vision posted to social media showed a man running ****** from police along James Street in Northbridge, about 11.20pm on Saturday in front of dozen of partygoers in the popular nightlife district.

A male and female police officer approached the man, with the man seen in the clip hitting the female officer on the head and face.

She suffered minor injuries.

He then swings for the male officer and a member of the public before strutting down the street with a handcuff attached to one of his arms — sticking out his ******* and taunting shocked onlookers.

Another video shows the man shrieking after being tasered, with police alleging he then tried to steal a parked rideshare vehicle, even though the driver was still inside.

The man can be seen on top of the person inside, clinging at the steering wheel as officers and bystanders attempt to drag him out of the car.

The man continues to lash out, with the female officer falling to the ground, before two other police units arrive.

About five police, as well as several members of the public, managed to gain control of the man as they pulled him out onto the street, before he was tasered a second time.

Walking from court on Sunday after being given bail and a 9pm curfew, Clark remained silent when asked by reporters why he had been ******.
