Amputee jailed for attacking bus driver with his crutch
Harrison was later found guilty of three counts of assaulting an emergency worker, assault on the bus driver, threatening behaviour, criminal damage to the police van and failing to provide a sample for drug analysis at the police station.
He also breached a restraining order after he turned up at his parents’ home. He was given a 10-year order in 2013 to keep away from their street. Defending Harrison, Theresa Clark said that his leg was amputated last year due to complications from deep-vein thrombosis stemming from his drug addiction.She said he started abusing prescription drugs and drinking to excess and added: “It led to the deterioration in his mental health and exacerbated his anti-social behaviour.
"He is genuinely shocked and extremely remorseful that he behaved in this manner to both members of the public and the police.The judge, Recorder Andrew Latimer jailed him for 15 months and two weeks, and handed him a new five-year restraining order to keep him away from his parents.
