PC is cleared of assault rap
A POLICEMAN who with a knife smashed his way through the windscreen of a suspect’s car has been cleared of assault.
Joshua Savage, 28, told a court he thought the driver – who refused to get out of the car – was a drug dealer.
At Southwark crown court, PC Savage, of Wanstead, East London, was found not guilty of assault, causing damage and using a knife.
Footage of the event was shared on social media.
