Instant Karma! Speeding e-scooter riders crash into each other after hurtling down pavement
Richard Garbas was driving down an A road in Luton, Bedfordshire, when he spotted two boys on electric scooters without helmets on.
Dashcam footage shows one cruising down the pavement and one quickly turning the street corner before they collide in wince-inducing face-to-face crash. Richard admits 'a side of him hoped they hit each other' and that he found the clip funny at the time because of their 'idiotic' riding.

Drug-addict Hamas supporter called for Jews to be ‘burnt alive'
A Hamas supporter with a £600-a-week cannabis habit has been jailed after calling for Jews to be 'burnt alive'. Zakir Hussain, 29, used the social media site X to write a spate of anti-Semitic posts over a three-month period. Hussain first posted on November 3 2023, less than a month after the Oct 7 Hamas attacks in which more than 1,000 Israelis were killed. He wrote: 'Hezbullah come quick finish them like rodents.' Later that month, Hussain wrote: '7 October was a beautiful day, Jews stop hiding.' On December 25 2023, he commented: 'October 7 was a beautiful day', 'In the UK, we are hunting them for fun' and 'Go on Hamas, finish them and maybe we can find the beheaded urine babies'. The posting continued into January last year, when Hussain wrote on January 5: 'I'm in London, any Jew out there come out and stand up for your religion.' Four days later he posted: 'Wish it was more in that festival slaughter them IDK terrorists, burn them alive' in reference to the Oct 7 attack. He also wrote: 'Long live Hamas, Hezbollah' and ' Hamas, Houthi, Hezbollah finish these little rats.' 'Burn them alive' His final post came on Jan 10, when he wrote: 'Burn them alive, no religion can abuse children the way they do.' Hussain, of no fixed address, admitted four counts of expressing support for a proscribed organisation and seven counts of stirring up racial hatred between November 3 2023 and January 10 last year. He was jailed for five years and eight months, with an extended period on licence of three years. Judge Anthony Leonard KC said a pre-sentence report revealed Hussain was spending £600 a week on cannabis at the time of the offences. Hussain refused to give his PIN to police but, once they got into his phone, they found still images 'indicative of a mindset that was supportive of Hamas'. 'You are not being punished for your sympathy but for what your posts may have garnered in support for a proscribed organisation,' the judge said. Hussain believed 9/11 was a planned attack that the US government knew about and allowed to happen, the court heard. Judge Leonard told Hussain he had 'focused on hate speech instead of educating yourself'. Hussain, wearing a green T-shirt, waved to the public gallery as he was led to the cells.

Oisin Murphy booked for rides right up until court date after drink-drive charge
OISIN MURPHY is currently booked for rides right up until the day before he appears in court following his drink-drive charge. The reigning champion jockey, who was also charged with failing to provide a sample at the roadside, crashed his car into a tree and injured a woman in a smash near Hungerford on April 27. 1 Murphy, 29, will appear at Reading Magistrates' Court on Thursday. However, he is currently booked to be riding right up until that day as trainers and owners appear happy to let him on their horses. Murphy actually rode a double at Royal Ascot last Thursday - the same day he was charged by police. And, according to current jockey bookings, he is due to be in action at Thirsk in North Yorkshire next Wednesday for four rides. The BHA issued a statement soon after Murphy's charge was made public but no mention was made of Murphy, for whatever reason, not being allowed to continue riding. He has five rides at Doncaster today including on 8-11 favourite Displaying in the 3.20. According to BHA jockey bookings, Murphy is set to ride for Andrew Balding, James Ferguson and Ismail Mohammed on Wednesday. Currently, his final race would be in the 4.03 on the Opulence Thoroughbred-owned Triple Gee. Thirsk racecourse is some 238 miles from the court, a drive of roughly five hours. A statement from Thames Valley Police said: "A man has been charged in connection with an ongoing investigation into a serious road traffic collision in Hermitage, West Berkshire. "Last Thursday (19/6) Oisin Murphy, aged 29, of Beales Farm Road, Lambourn, Hungerford, was charged by postal requisition with one count of driving a motor vehicle while over the prescribed limit of alcohol and one count of failing to cooperate with a preliminary test at the roadside. "The charge is in connection with a single vehicle road traffic collision around 12.05am on Sunday 27 April this year when a grey Mercedes A Class left the road and crashed into a tree. "Murphy is due to appear at Reading Magistrates' Court on 3 July. "It is vital that people do not speculate or spread misinformation on social media as this is a live investigation." The BHA said in a statement: "The BHA is aware of an update issued by Thames Valley Police this afternoon regarding Mr Oisin Murphy. "We are now seeking to gather as much information as possible in order to consider what, if any, implications there are as a result of this development."
