Officers from Altona Police are investigating an affray which occurred on the Westgate Freeway earlier this month.

Police have been told traffic had slowed in the outbound lanes of the Westgate just after the Williamstown Road exit about 4pm on 11 February.

Two men in a grey BMW pulled up next to a charter bus, believed to be carrying a group of men returning to Geelong from a bucks day.

An empty beer bottle was allegedly thrown from the bus and smashed into the bonnet of the car and dented the vehicle.
