Police in the ACT are hunting for a driver wearing a banana costume and balaclava who allegedly injured a man while doing burnouts on Friday night.
The emergency services were called to Copper Crescent in Beard at around 9.10pm over reports a man had been hit by a tyre that came loose from a car doing burnouts.
The injured 21-year-old was treated by paramedics at the scene and then taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Police are searching for the alleged driver of the gold Ford Falcon sedan, which is covered in graffiti.
An ACT Police statement said they ‘would also like to speak to anyone who witnessed the incident, or who may have mobile phone footage of the incident, who has not already spoken to police’.

In January, a fed-up ACT cop lashed out at irresponsible drivers doing burnouts, calling them a ‘subspecies of the human race’.
During the four-day Summernats revhead festival, 13 cars were seized by the police.
‘If we set up an IQ-testing station at the border instead of a vehicle-testing station we’d halve our problems,’ Acting Inspector Mark Richardson said at the time.
‘The real car enthusiasts are not the problem, it’s the moron tourism.’
‘They just haven’t evolved very far. I think they’ve really plateaued as a species or subspecies of the human race.’
