Biker grandad fatally mowed down by rival gang member for ‘wearing wrong colours’

Three bikers have been jailed after being found guilty of the death of a grandad who wore the “wrong colours” on their turf.

Van driver Benjamin Parry, 42, mowed down David Crawford, 59, as he rode down the A38 in Plymouth last May before dragging him hundreds of metres and leaving him for dead.

Dashcam footage from inside Parry’s work van captured the moment he approached the grandfather.

Parry and fellow motorbike club members Chad Brading, 36, and Thomas Pawley, 32, were found guilty of manslaughter.

Prosecutors said they acted as a “joint enterprise” in the attack.
