A Peregian Beach man, 28, has been charged by police after allegedly tackling a woman at a local beach on 8 April.
Police will allege a woman in her 60s was walking along Peregian Beach, near Beach Access 53, around 9.15am when she approached a man and had a brief verbal interaction.
The man then allegedly tackled the woman and ran from the scene.
The woman was taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

He is due to appear in Maroochydore Magistrates Court on 21 August.
