A man from Gateshead who deliberately drove at a man who was attacking his father to protect him amid a violent street brawl has avoided immediate jail time.
Alex Bamling drove his Mazda at a man on Gateshead’s riverside South Shore Road, near the Baltic Centre For Contemporary Art, at around 9pm on Sunday, April 18, 2021.
The 23-year-old along with his father and brother came across a group of males in the Millennium Bridge car park in Gateshead. A fight broke out between the two groups with some of the males wielding glass bottles.
