Auriol Grey was seen on CCTV shouting at retired midwife Celia Ward to “get off the f****** pavement” but appeal judges ruled her conviction should be quashed.
The manslaughter conviction of a pedestrian who shouted and waved at a cyclist, causing her to fall into the path of an oncoming car, has been quashed.
The court heard Grey was charged with unlawful act manslaughter – which requires an unlawful action to take place that caused death. Mr Darbishire said: “Hostile gesticulation is not a crime, otherwise we would have 50,000 football fans each weekend being apprehended.”
