A driver who went through a red light and crashed into another car, leaving one man dead and another with life changing injuries, has been jailed.
Sami Azizi was locked up for eight years on Wednesday at Birmingham Crown Court for causing death and serious injury by dangerous driving on New John Street West in Birmingham.
The 22-year-old from Gaton Road in West Bromwich, who was also banned from driving for nine years, was driving a blue BMW at speed along New John Street West shortly before 4am on July 31, 2021 before going through a red light at the junction of Summer Lane.
