<p>&nbsp;</p><p>A jealous Australian gay man is accused of attempting to murder his ex-lover after he spotted him kissing a woman, a court was told.</p><p>Craig Munro, 34, followed 23-year-old Brendan Gannaway as he rode his bike to work at around 6:10 a.m. yesterday. That&rsquo;s when Munro hit the man with his car&ndash;launching the victim 23-feet into the air. The force of the collision was so great that one of the victim&rsquo;s shoes was found on the roof of a house two doors down. Incredibly, the victim survived with only scratches and bruises, and had seen the attack coming when he turned around. &ldquo;I said okay, (expletive), I&rsquo;m going to get hit,&rdquo; he told the court.</p><p>According to reports, days earlier Munro was said to be furious when the victim rejected his demands for a more serious relationship. The two had only a casual sexual relationship for one month. And he was outraged further when he saw his ex-lover kissing a woman at a nightclub&ndash;and went home with her. That&rsquo;s when he decided to kill Gannaway.</p><p>The suspect turned himself over to authorities half an hour after the attack and confessed to the murder attempt. &ldquo;I told him I would kill him &ndash; I shouldn&rsquo;t have done it,&rdquo; Munro told a police officer. &ldquo;I should have just bashed him.&rdquo;</p>
