Story summary

On Sunday evening around 5:55 PM, Bradley Bullock, a 50-year-old man, was fatally struck by a car driven by his wife, Lacey-Jay Bullock, outside their home on Stoneywood Street in Fernvale, located about 60 kilometers west of Brisbane. Emergency services were called to the scene but were unable to revive him; he died from head and multiple bone injuries at the location. Neighbors reported hearing arguments before the incident and attempted CPR on Mr. Bullock until paramedics arrived.

Lacey-Jay Bullock, a 45-year-old woman who was previously disqualified from driving, has been arrested and charged with murder and driving while disqualified. She is currently in custody after being denied bail at her first court appearance in Ipswich Magistrates Court, where she will be remanded until October 21st.

The incident caused significant distress among local residents, prompting authorities to appeal for any witnesses or individuals familiar with the couple's relationship dynamics to come forward.
