A teenage e-bike thug whose goading of police led to an innocent officer being dragged to court is not the only ‘feral’ member of his family.
Mason McGarry, 19, was jailed earlier this month after he drove at 60mph in a 40mph zone during a police chase before mounting the pavement and hitting a lorry.
The teenager who has 42 previous convictions was earlier nudged off his e-bike by an officer using the bumper of his patrol car in another police chase in 2022.
PC Tim Bradshaw knocked off McGarry and his pillion passenger Dominic Mizzi, 22, to prevent them from getting away and putting other road users and pedestrians at risk after they made offensive gestures to him.
The officer was later charged with causing injury by dangerous driving before being cleared by a jury at Portsmouth Crown Court, Hampshire.
