An Australian man has been arrested over a video that allegedly showed him deliberately driving his car into several emus.

因在上传的一个视频中显示故意开车撞向一群鸸鹋，一名澳大利亚男子于近日被捕。

The footage caused outrage after surfacing online earlier last week.

It prompted a nationwide effort to find the perpetrator.

在上周早些时候，这段视频引发了人们的愤怒，导致澳大利亚在全国范围内搜捕肇事者。

Last Friday, police in Victoria said a 20-year-old man faced several charges of animal cruelty.

维多利亚州警方上周五表示，这名20岁的男子将面临几起虐待动物的指控。

In the video, the driver is heard cheering as he strikes the birds on a dirt road with his car.

在视频中，这位司机在一段土路上，用自己的车撞向了这些鸟类，并发出欢呼声。

"This is great -- I've got that one too, and that one," he says.

他说道：太棒了。

我撞到了一只，又撞到了一只。

”Police said the footage, which shows the driver's face, was filmed in Cowangie, a town about 500km north-west of Melbourne.

警方称，该视频是在墨尔本西北约500公里的科万吉拍摄的，视频中出现了这名司机的脸。

The RSPCA said: "We unequivocally condemn this type of behaviour, as it clearly shows a disregard for the lives of vulnerable native animals.

"防止虐待动物协会称：我们明确谴责这种行为，因为这明显显示出了对这些脆弱的本地动物生命的漠视。

”Under Victorian law, people convicted of animal cruelty face up to two years in jail and a fine of A$74,620.

The man will face a court hearing in November.

根据维多利亚州的法律，被判虐待动物的人会面临最高两年的监禁和74620澳元的罚款。

该男子将于今年11月份出庭受审。
