A drink-driver in a Mercedes ploughed into four teenagers, leaving two with serious injuries. Peter Adenuga was more than twice the alcohol limit when his car hit the group as they stopped to speak to a taxi driver.

One of the teenagers was left with a bleed on the brain and fractures to the skull, shoulder and elbow. A second suffered a dislocated knee, broken hip and fractures to the face.
