A drunken electrician crashed his car after a Christmas bash before trying to gouge out a police officer's eyes. And now he's in prison.
James Wilson lost control of his car in Downend on December 22 last year, Bristol Crown Court heard. But when police arrived at the scene all hell broke loose, with Wilson attempted to gouge out one officer's eyes and spitting at another.
Wilson, 33, of Albert Road in Hanham, was found guilty of attempted grievous bodily harm after a trial. He pleaded guilty to assaulting an emergency worker, driving while unfit through drink, driving without insurance and failing to provide a specimen of breath.
