Drunk Maserati driver, 48, who left two police officers wheelchair-bound when he ploughed into them as he lost control of his sports car is jailed for three years

Mohammed Shaikh, 48, lost control of his supercar, mounted the pavement and crashed into the side of a house on the North Circular in north-west London. Shaikh (pictured inset) had drunk at least four glasses of wine at a party in Windsor when he got behind the wheel to drive home with his wife in the passenger seat. PC Christopher Appleton, 35, and PC Samantha Clark, 36, suffered horrendous injuries in the incident (the wreckage of the car is shown left and right) and were in hospital for weeks. Mr Appleton suffered multiple broken bones leaving him unable to care for his pregnant wife and two children, while Ms Clark may never walk unaided again. Both officers sat in wheelchairs in court for the sentencing as Shaikh, also known as Mohammed Shisq, was jailed for three years and four months at Harrow Crown Court.
