The 1993 Perth tank rampage refers to an event in the early hours of 27 April 1993, when 27-year-old Gary Alan Hayes stole an armoured personnel carrier (APC) – referred to in the media as a tank – from Irwin Barracks and drove it through the Perth CBD, ramming police targets and government buildings. It is the first of only two events of this kind in Australia, the second happening in Sydney in 2007.
