Family of victim thank those who stopped at scene
A Union Mills man who seriously injured a teenager biker has been jailed for three years.
Ryan Kneen, of Close-y-Lhergy, has also been disqualified from driving for six years after which he must retake his test.
Kneen, 26, was charged with a string of motoring offences including causing serious bodily harm to the 16 year-old by driving dangerously on the Ballahutchin Straight in April.
He was also accused of drink driving, failing to stop after a collision, driving whilst disqualified, without insurance and of taking a vehicle without the owner's consent.
The family of the teenager are thanking all those who stopped to help at the time.
