In the bizarre and terrifying incident in the summer of 2022, one woman had to hide near the Leeds and Liverpool Canal and another couple had to flee to the safety of Skipton police station after Jonaid ul Hassan threatened them when they asked him to slow down Ul Hassan, 25, of Brougham Street in Skipton, has now been jailed for 20 months at Bradford Crown Court after pleading guilty to dangerous driving, criminal damage, possessing an offensive weapon and affray.

The man was also rescued by a member of the public in a car, and the woman ended up near the canal. Their friends then returned and managed to pick the woman up, but as they drove away Ul Hassan chased them in the Audi, ramming the vehicle. At this point, several witnesses had called police about the incident. He caused £4,956 of damage to the victims’ car and the attack only ended when they were directed to the police station by a 999 call handler.
