Coronavirus denier Eve Black facing multiple charges for breaching Victoria's health order

A coronavirus denier is expected to be charged with multiple offences after allegedly failing to comply with a public health order in Victoria.

The woman, known as 'Eve Black' made headlines last week after a video of her went viral, where she appeared to refuse to comply with a police officer at a  COVID-19 checkpoint.

She was arrested yesterday in Melbourne after being stopped by police on Princes Street in Carlton.

Police have been trying to talk to her since the border checkpoint incident on July 23.

Officers were forced to smash the car window yesterday when Ms Black refused to cooperate.

"Upon being intercepted, she was asked to provide her name and address which she refused to do. Police then directed her to produce her driver's licence and explain her reason for travel, which she also refused to comply with," a Victoria Police statement said.

"This led to police arresting her. During the arrest, police were forced to break the woman's car window as she refused to speak to them, wind down her window, or step out of the vehicle."

Ms Black has since been released by police after being issued with a court summons for traffic-related offences, failing to produce a licence, name and address and breaches of the Victorian Chief Health Officer's order.

Those charges are likely to happen in the coming days.

In Ms Black's original video posted to Facebook, she appeared to boast about dodging one of the police roadblocks by refusing to provide an officer with details of where she was travelling.

She also refused to roll down her window in the video.

"I don't need to answer your questions," Ms Black said to police in the video.

"Have I committed a crime?"

The police officer in the video responded "no, keeping going" before waving the woman through the checkpoint.

Ms Black has since deleted most content off her Facebook page, except for an earlier post where she wrote: "I regret nothing. I'm just tired of the abuse and threats. Wake up, sleeper."

Deputy Commissioner Rick Nugent called the defiance a "selfish and childish act".
