CCTV captures teen using car ‘as a weapon’ after fight

CCTV footage shows a car being used “as a weapon”, accelerating and mounting a pavement right behind two men.

Thomas Baker, 19, from Bethesda, Gwynedd, was sentenced to 40 months in a young offender institution, following an incident on the town’s high street at about 13:00 BST on 18 August.

Caernarfon Crown Court heard that following a fight between four people, he used his Audi A3 to mount the pavement in order to hit David Thomas, who was thrown into the air, fracturing his ankle and cutting his head.

Baker had previously admitted grievous bodily harm with intent, dangerous driving and driving while banned and uninsured, along with the common assault of Michael Smith.
