A Nantwich man has been jailed for more than five years after he drove a car at another man in Newcastle-under-Lyme.
Andrew Paul Whalley, 34, was jailed for five years and four months at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court after he admitted section 18 – wounding with intent, affray and driving a motor vehicle dangerously.
In April 2024, a fight broke out between Whalley and another man inside a shop on High Street, Talke Pits, which spilled out onto the street.
Whalley (pictured) left the scene but five minutes later, he drove a blue Vauxhall at speed onto the pavement, where the man he had been fighting with was standing.
The victim suffered serious injuries.
Whalley then got out of the car and chased the victim around cars parked along the street.
When Whalley was arrested, he claimed that the victim had jumped in front of the car to stop him but then answered ‘no comment’ to all questioned asked in custody.
Sgt Gail Tolley, of the Stoke South local policing team, said: “Whalley subjected his victim to a spontaneous and violent attack which has left him with long-lasting injuries.
“We worked tirelessly to gather evidence against Whalley and I am glad he has now been jailed for his actions.”

Speaking of knuckle-draggers, you obviously went to the same school as Donald Trump and don’t understand when to use capital letters and – more importantly- when not to.
Shouty-shouty “all capitals” is one thing but random capitalisation is boringly uninformed.
Our Judicial System is Absolutely Sickening Pathetic Joke so leniently sentencing the Monsters routinely inflicting Violence on their Victims?
Can we have ‘Corporal Punishment’ back to Hurt and Deter the deranged Knuckle-Draggers, PLEASE?
Roll on REFORM🙏!
