A 28-year-old woman has been arrested by an off-duty police officer after allegedly attacking a heavily pregnant woman as she walked down a street in Sydney's Surry Hills, NSW police said.
According to police, the victim - who is 30-weeks pregnant - was walking to work just before 9 am on Tuesday when another woman suddenly emerged from an alcove and allegedly began hitting her in the head.
The 26-year-old victim also allegedly had her hair pulled before she was rammed into a power pole.
NSW Police Force allege the attack was unprovoked.
"It was just a totally unprovoked, unwarranted, unnecessary attack," Detective Chief Inspector Adam Johnson told reporters on Tuesday.
