Birmingham, UK - An already-banned driver rammed into three police vehicles and came within inches of mowing down an officer as he attempted to flee a crime scene.

Dramatic bodycam footage captured prolific offender Shaheeb Hussain behind the wheel of his white VW Scirocco as he tried to evade the West Midlands Police in a chaotic pursuit through the streets of Birmingham last October.

The 28-year-old was spotted by officers asleep in the parked car on Montpellier Street at around 9.30am on October 5 when they noticed that tape had been used to obscure the number plate of the vehicle.

As the police moved in, Hussain suddenly jolted awake and reversed at speed in a reckless bid to escape. Despite the efforts of the police drawing tasers and another patrol car blocking the road, Hussain refused to stop – even forcing one officer to leap out of the way to avoid being run down.

Footage shows a female officer bravely smashing the driver's side window with a baton as he accelerated directly at her colleagues.

He then drove off at high speed, crashing into three police vehicles and another car belonging to a member of the public, leaving a trail of destruction in his wake.

Body-worn video shows armed officers descending on the smashed Scirocco and dragging Hussain out onto the tarmac.

One officer can be heard shouting: “Get the hell out of the vehicle now” to which Hussain replies: “Don't hit me like this mate.”

Another officer, stunned at the carnage caused, tells him: “Look what you've done. Look at the damage you've done.”

Looking around at the wreckage, Hussain sheepishly mutters: 'Stupid, stupid, innit?'

Officers later discovered Hussain was already banned from driving until March 2027. A search of the vehicle uncovered two sets of pliers, a pair of scissors, multiple false registration plates, and a foil-lined bag.

Three police officers were injured in the incident. One required hospital treatment, while the other two sustained less serious injuries. Hussain went on to admit dangerous driving, going equipped for theft, and a string of other motoring offences.

He was jailed for 22 weeks at Birmingham Crown Court last Thursday and hit with an additional five-year driving ban.
