Alan Lewis ploughed into the staff member as he drove off from the farm shop
CCTV captured the moment a fleeing shoplifter drove into a staff member trying to prevent his escape.
The footage shows a black Vauxhall Corsa approaching the half-closed gate where an employee is attempting to quickly shut the second metal fence. As the car drives forward, the employee stands in the way before being nudged along the road by the car, then at speed as the worker is carried away down the road clutching the bonnet.
The shop confirmed the employee was not injured but feels 'shaken up' following the incident. The shop wrote: "This man is a repeating shop lifter!! He has just sped out of Mainsgill with Matthew on and under his bonnet as we tried to shut the gates!!" The video has been viewed 1.2million times at time of publication.
He has been remanded in custody until the next hearing on December 17 at York Crown Court at 10.30am.
