So they got in an argument earlier those two are attacking him. Looks like self defense. If you are hitting someone's car you deserve it.

As someone that has been to Newcastle, wouldn’t surprise me if the girl and the dude did something to the bloke in the car first lol

I don't understand why the fuck is that bitch hammering the windshield for. What is she trying to accomplish.
Sarcausticretrd
The Driver pushed her to the ground first that's why she started hammering the windshield.
picaro616
that’s not what happened. reread the article all the way through.
phillipaC
That’s exactly what the article is saying
picaro616
i think i took it as “pushed to the ground by the car”, but i guess he did so before the video wee see, on cctv footage. my mistake.
Shineupordown
So wait driver got jailed ?? Why didnt couple got jailed for attack ?
Sarcausticretrd
Probably because the Driver was at fault. He pushed her to the ground and then she started hitting the windshield
franklydizzy
They probably got a fine or something because attempted destruction of private property is not equal to attempted murder.
Shineupordown
they were grabbing doors trying to get the guy out of the car..its assault for sure and they should be jailed along with the driver
franklydizzy
Didn't start grabbing door sill after he tried to mow them down. This isn't in America so I don't know the laws straight up.2

ThisCantBeYoursItIsMine
Check the sauce update, driver forced the woman to the ground before getting in car
az1471
Article says there was a prior arguement but couple didn't assist police.
HypnotoadIRL
I would say he might have been the victim until he started to leave and then went in reverse for more. Not a good plan.
ldyshadow254
He stopped being a victim once he used the car as a weapon. Should hav just left
kiara8942000
Right up until he backed up, when he had a clear escape route, and purposely tried to kill someone with his car.
NotEnoughMidgets
If you think the driver is the victim and is justified in his actions here, there is a pretty serious problem with what you consider moral.
lilgypsy
Those things are not mutually exclusive. It appears he was the victim and also his response was not justifiable once he reversed to hit them
FeenyBoBeany
I mean; you kinda stop being a victim after several attempts at murders. Guy reversed to have another go at it so it was delibrate 1/2
Belgeirn
Yeah driver was doing fine until he started aiming at them to get away, if he had just driven forward and got away it would be their fault.

He was ok till he backed up and drove the car at them

Attempted Destruction of private property doesn't justify attempted murder bro. Even if the other person has a vagina.

I doubt you will ever be able to explain this to an American...
aTokenOfMyExtreme
Yeah but then he backed up and rammed that other dude instead of driving away

yeah other guy was chasing him but he shouldnt have backed up its gonna look bad.Still the guy chasing should be jailed as well for assault
Eleshar24
Did you notice that he essentially almost crushed him against a building? Or course he was pissed.

If you use your car as a weapon against a pedestrian you should be banned for life. They posed no immediate threat to the driver.

Which completely ignores the fact she was hitting his car. Just like how you completely ignored that I pointing this out.

No I didn't but they made it seem like the driver pushed her then she started hitting the car. There is a the couple isn't in trouble
Exevium
It said something about an argument, and assault with a deadly weapon doesn't seem like the proper response.
eggmuffin
The nature of the preceding argument is irrelevant. This is a report on the arrest, not a game show.
ThinkingOfOneTakesTooLong
It is when she was literally trying to do property damage. Its like saying it doesnt matter the preceding events, a guy shot a cop. 1/2

But turns out cops broke into wrong house unannounced and he thought they were intruders. Like I said tho, the last hit crossed the line 2/2

59th?! At what point do you say “you know what, you aren’t responsible enough to drive a car.”? 109th offense?
AccioKittyKitty
I need to know WHY! The article makes the couple the victim but she is clearly vandalizing. Is he supposed to let her? It’s illegal to flee?
PeteThePerv
Probably illegal to back your car up and willfully drive a man down, though.
AccioKittyKitty
Clearly. That’s not what I was addressing.
PeteThePerv
So, why are you asking if it's illegal to flee? That has zero bearing on what's going on.
ThinkingOfOneTakesTooLong
Doesn't show why she started hitting his car, driving off is reasonable. Backing up to hit the guy was not though.

No, but for two "innocent" people, why did they refuse to help police investigate it?
PeteThePerv
There isn't a clause in UK law that allows you to drive down a person, even if they were being a right cunt.

Nobody said that. Just asking why on the side.
SanguineMyBrother
Oh, his actions were in the wrong, but clickbait from hell. We need more context.
