A man who murdered a “good Samaritan” by running him over as he helped an injured woman has been jailed for a minimum of 26 years.

Hassan Jhangur, 25, killed Chris Marriott in December 2023 when he deliberately ran his car into a group of people after a fight broke out between his family and the family of the groom at a wedding in Sheffield. He was found guilty of murder in July, a year after another set of jurors failed to reach any verdicts in the case.
