A 20-YEAR-old Beenleigh man has been remanded in custody to reappear in court on June 25 following charges arising from an alleged attempted petrol drive-off in Logan on April 23.

The man appeared in Richlands Magistrates Court on Tuesday facing 22 charges, among them dangerous operation of a motor vehicle and wilful damage.

Magistrate Andrew Cridlands remanded him in custody until June 23. He will reappear at Richlands Magistrates court on June 25 when he will be required to enter a plea relating to the charges.

Surveillance footage of the incident at Mt Warren Park Caltex went viral, showing the man's teenage sister filling the car up with petrol when a console operator approached the vehicle, checking its registration plates.

The driver attempted to speed away but his sister was thrown into the air.

She landed heavily before running several metres to the car and leaving petrol gushing from the broken bowser.

The woman was charged with stealing shortly after the April 23 incident and was given a notice to appear at a later date.
