A 28-year-old male pedestrian sustained non-life threatening injuries after he was struck by the vehicle as it travelled along the footpath, before it re-entered Flinders Street and came to a halt.
The male driver, a 22-year-old Townsville man was arrested at the scene and subsequently charged with dangerous operation of a motor vehicle.
