Man 'never intended' to cause harm to teen killed in high-speed chase, court hears

A man who was driving a car that collided with a teenager on a motorbike, said he “never intended” to cause harm, a trial has heard.

Brandon Glover, 24, of Pasture Close in Clock Face, drove a car which collided with the back of the two motorbikes following a high-speed chase, in which Glover drove his vehicle up to 97 mph along the 30 mph residential road. A court previously heard that Glover’s brother, Benjamin Glover, had his bike stolen earlier in the evening and the two men went out looking for it.

Harley Lea died after his bike was struck by Glover's Toyota Corolla on Park Road, near the junction of Blackbrook Road and Boardmans Lane, in the early hours of October 4 2022. Two other men, Jordan Carter and Louis Coleman, who were passengers on Mr Lea's bike, were also injured.
