“Thankfully, she got out of that situation and is fine. The most terrifying moment of my career that’s for sure, and we’re just relieved she’s OK.”Carnavas, who lives in Brisbane, was on Temple Street in the inner-southern suburb of Coorparoo at 10.20pm on Tuesday when the incident unfolded, and an investigation is ongoing, Queensland Police have confirmed.
She was sitting in her parked vehicle when five men in a VW Passat pulled up and approached her sedan. “The males attempted to open the door, with one of them producing a knife and yelling at the woman through the closed driver’s side window,” a police spokesperson said. “They were unable to gain entry as the vehicle was locked and returned back to the VW Passat before leaving onto Bennetts Road.”
Listeners posted on social media of how the live audio and Carnavas’ screams made their “blood run cold”, while others credited SEN and Hill for handling a tough situation with calmness and grace.Carnavas, who was born in South Africa, was the first Australian woman of African origin to represent a women’s national team, and also featured in the W-League for Perth Glory.
