Father had 18 stitches after Staffordshire car yob drama
A father needed 18 stitches after he was dragged along the road by a car containing a gang of four masked yobs in a South Staffordshire village.
Glenn Adamson was walking home with a friend and his 13-year-old daughter from a party at The Hartley Arms in Wheaton Aston when the car pulled up by them on Oaksmoor Close.
The men were staring at his daughter, so Mr Adamson told the men to 'clear off' before they drove off at speed, pulling 41-year-old Mr Adamson along the road with them at around 12.15am.
"We were on our way back from the Hartley when we saw a car parked up with four masked men inside outside the post office in the high street," said Mr Adamson.
"They drove past us slowly, staring at my daughter and pulled up round the corner.
"They then pulled up beside us and we walked straight past the car but they drove past us slowly again and pulled onto our side of the road.
"The lad in the passenger's seat had a horse's head mask on and two of the others had black plastic masks and the fourth was wearing a white plastic mask.
"My mate then put his hand on my shoulder and flipped the driver's mask up. As he did that the driver drove off as fast as he could. I somehow was caught on the car and was dragged along for a short while before I fell and hit the back of my head off the road. I needed 18 stitches."
The car was a 'very shiny' black high class BMW, possibly a five series, with tinted windows, large alloy wheels and four doors.
