One Nation condemns alleged baseball bat assault on volunteer

The Victorian One Nation leader has condemned an alleged assault on a party volunteer in Torquay.

Warren Pickering says the volunteer was attacked with a baseball bat after an altercation over One Nation signs at their home.

Two males were arrested over the incident, with a 37-year-old man charged with assault offences.

One Nation Victoria has condemned an alleged attack on a party volunteer at his home on Sunday night that left him hospitalised.

A Victoria Police spokesperson said a 37-year-old man and a 14-year-old boy were arrested following the alleged assault on Scorpio Street in Torquay about 7:45pm.

The 60-year-old volunteer was allegedly attacked with a baseball bat and taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The 37-year-old man has been charged with assault offences and has been remanded to appear before court on November 10.

The 14-year-old boy was issued with a caution.

One Nation Victoria leader Warren Pickering said the attack allegedly began after One Nation signs on the victim's property were interfered with.

Mr Pickering said any kind of political violence or intimidation was unacceptable.

"[If] you don't like someone's politics, you vote accordingly. You don't assault them," he said.

"Our thoughts are with our volunteer and his family. We're informed he has serious injuries. This attack is un-Australian and unacceptable."

The alleged attack came on the same day as a vandalism attack on a pub in Ballarat East.

Meaghers Hotel and cars parked outside the pub were spray-painted on Sunday morning with anti-One Nation slogans, which the owner of the pub called "mindless stupidity".
