• A van driver who killed a pensioner as he went through a red light in a bid to escape from chasing police was jailed for 33 months and banned from driving for six years at Birmingham Crown Court last week.
Anthony Simmons, 24, a floor layer of Lime Tree Close, Batchley, Redditch, crashed his Ford van into a car and the impact catapulted the van into a 78-year-old pedestrian.
Simmons pleaded guilty to causing death by dangerous driving, having no insurance and having a false registration plate.
