«Breaking News» Disabled man jailed for mobility scooter attack on old ladies

A disabled man who used his mobility scooter as a 'battering ram' to knock over two elderly women on the pavement has been jailed for two years.

Aaron Ali, 40, reversed over Doris Collins, 88, and Joan Benjafield, 90, while they were out shopping in Welling, south-east London.

Shocking CCTV footage shows Ali driving off a number 96 bus on June 14 this year before suddenly reversing into his victims.

Mrs Collins suffered cuts to her knee while Mrs Benjafield was left with bruises to her calf and ribs after the two women toppled onto the pavement.

Describing the incident, prosecutor Mr Dean said: 'He hits the old lady nearest the kerb. She hits the ground.

'Ali stops and goes forward a short distance. Believe it or not he reverses again. The other lady is struck in exactly the same manner. She falls on the other lady.'

Ali has been jailed for two years and could have his mobility scooter seized by authorities if it deemed to be a 'weapon'

Ali was convicted of assault causing actual bodily harm to Ms Collins and Ms Benjafield after a two day trial at Southwark Crown Court in September.

Ali was also found guilty of harassing two jewellers in Woolwich in another incident in July 2017.

Prosecutors have since applied to confiscate Ali's £12,000 wheelchair, claiming it is a weapon.

Roger Daniells-Smith, defending, told the court: 'The inmates at Wandsworth prison have been playing with it. They have been mucking about with it and it has been damaged.'

Former psychiatric nurse Ali claimed he suffered a 'diabetic crash' before the incident, but he was convicted of two counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm.

He told the court: 'That day I was not feeling well. I was having a diabetic crash. That was what was happening. Basically, I am on morphine, a 116 milligrams a day. 

'Sometimes you would be moving and you would feel like you are sitting. I would knock thing over. It makes you clumsy like a drunk.

'I was scared people were going to attack me thinking I had done it on purpose. I drove in the opposite direction I was going in.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
