A driver intentionally rammed his car into a scooter in Northstowe. The incident led to two years imprisonment for attempted harm and dangerous driving.
The video shows Harris hitting the rider during the day. After the crash, Harris got out of his car, unharmed. The person on the scooter ran away afterward, and the incident occurred on August 1, just after 2 p.m. on Eagle Way.
Harris’s girlfriend called him to Eagle Way because she was arguing with the victim. The situation escalated, prompting her call. While driving there, Harris crashed into a parked Fiat 500 on Stirling Road, causing significant damage.
He did not stop or report the crash. When Harris arrived at Eagle Way in his Kia, he drove onto the sidewalk. The video captures the scooter crash, showing the impact that threw the victim off the scooter. Harris’ car flipped onto its side and crashed into a house.
The victim, in his 20s, sustained minor injuries to his legs, arms, and back. On February 3, a court sentenced Harris to two years and three months in prison. Harris doesn’t have a permanent address.
He admitted to attempted harm and dangerous driving. His license is suspended for nearly two years. He is also prohibited from contacting the victim, with this order having no end date.
A detective investigated the case, describing Harris’ violence as appalling. The detective stated that Harris used his car as a weapon and expressed relief that no one died or sustained further injuries due to Harris’s careless actions.
