David James, an 80-year-old British expat, was left with severe injuries after an alleged attack in Spain. According to the MailOnline, David was trying to prevent his neighbor, a 70-something retired councillor from England who was "visibly highly intoxicated," from driving while drunk.
David and another neighbor attempted to block off the road, but the suspect started driving up and down the road and beeping his horn. When he finally stopped, David tried to take the key out of the car's ignition. However, the suspect allegedly ran him over four times, leaving David with multiple fractures, injuries, and no teeth.
The suspect was eventually arrested and now faces charges of attempted murder and injuring three others. He is currently being held in prison while awaiting trial. David's neighbors have dubbed him "the neighbor from hell" due to his history of disruptive behavior. Reportedly, eighteen months ago, David had complained to police about the same man attempting to attack him with an axe.
David did not want to become wrapped up in a legal battle, as his wife had just been diagnosed with cancer. He said, "I told them he was going to kill somebody one day, although I didn’t know that person would almost be me."
The severity of the attack on David is alarming, especially when compared to the sentence of a driver who killed a 13-year-old boy in a hit and run, who was recently jailed for less than a year. David is fortunate to have survived the attack, and his story serves as a reminder of the consequences of dangerous driving.
