Funfair worker who drove car at colleague causing life changing injuries is jailed
The heir to the Wolverhampton-based Harry Jones Fun Fair business has been jailed for 10 years for causing ‘life changing’ injuries to a man he drove a car at.
Harry Jones Junior was sentenced at Wolverhampton Crown Court after being found guilty by trial of section 18 assault and causing grievous bodily harm at an earlier trial.
The court heard Daniel Tulley was left with severe head and brain injuries after he was hit by a Range Rover car containing Jones and three other men on November 4, 2019 in Clayhanger Road, Brownhills.
The pair worked together on the fair but had fallen out over an unknown matter and Facebook and text messages were exchanged with talks of the two meeting up for a fight.
One saw Mr Tulley talk of arranging a fight in front of a crowd with a £10,000 purse on it to which Jones, aged 31, who lives in Cradley Heath told him to ‘.... off’.
