A teenage girl has been filmed during brutal hazing at CFA station

SHOCKING footage of a teenage girl being dragged by her hair and pushed to the ground by several men has emerged after a violent hazing incident at a Bendigo CFA station in Central Victoria.

The 17-year-old volunteer firefighter was filmed being pushed underneath a parked fire truck and sprayed with fire sprinklers while a group of men watched on at the Bendigo fire station last month.

CFA chief executive Frances Diver said she was “sickened” by the footage.

“It (the footage) tells you there is a culture problem in that brigade, that people think this is acceptable behaviour,” she told 3AW’s Neil Mitchell.
It is understood the teenager was not injured during the incident and requested the matter not be taken further.

But Ms Diver said the CFA had a responsibility to “take action” and had referred the matter to Victoria Police.

Four volunteer firefighters involved in the incident were suspended immediately, Ms Diver said.

“I am horrified at the idea that a young girl has been brutalised in that way,” she said.

Victoria Police confirmed Bendigo Crime Unit detectives were made aware of the incident at Eaglehawk fire station but said no formal complaint had been made and no offence detected.

“The matter is now complete,” Victoria Police spokeswoman said.

Emergency Services Minister James Merlino said as a parent he was “disgusted” by the incident.

Snake man catches big deadly male Tiger Snake in a Warrandyte bedroom!

Hot weather and snakes enter homes to get out of the heat. Melbourne's first run of 30 C days has the SNAKE MAN Raymond Hoser flat knacker catching snakes in homes across Melbourne. As the only 24/7 snake catcher in Melbourne, the SNAKE MAN is the go to person for snake removal in Melbourne. In this video he is looking for a snake last seen going onto a bed and under a pillow. When he finds it, the snake is under the blankets in bed. There was a terrified elderly lady at the home and she was very happy that the SNAKE MAN had kept her safe. The is seen here grabbing the deadly serpent with his bare hands as it flees and it is notable that in spite of the bad reputation of Tiger Snakes as being aggressive, this one and most others simply want to run away from people.
Location was Warrandyte Ringwood Road, at an address near the Warrandyte shopping village.
PS Do not copy what you see as without the skill of the SNAKEMAN imitation may result in death.
