Trace Gallagher reported this afternoon on a crazy story out of Australia.

Reporter Peter Steer was on his way to cover a shooting when the suspect, riding a motorcycle, flagged him down.

The man, with blood on his hands, told him he wanted to confess and proceeded to tell Steer, on video, that he had just shot someone.

Steer then called police, but before they could get there, the suspect, Jule Brook, changed his mind and pulled a gun.

Brook then drove off in the news vehicle, eventually crashing into a fuel tank at a gas station in his attempt to elude police.

He then apparently tried to find a lighter to ignite the spilled gasoline, but police apprehended him.

The woman who was allegedly shot survived. Brook now faces attempted murder and other charges.

Watch the full report and compelling video above.
