A robber who pulled a woman from a car after she pulled over to deal with a puncture is among a dozen crooks locked up for crimes in August.
Jerry Johnson, 27, was in a vehicle following the white SEAT Leon along the Stanground bypass, Peterborough, at about 12.30am on Sunday, 9 January, 2022.
The victim’s car had a flat tyre and she was driving slowly when the vehicle, with Johnson inside, began tailgating her and flashing its lights.
She pulled into a lay-by and Johnson reached through the open window to open the door and pull her out of the car.
The victim ran off and returned to the lay-by later that day to find the car had gone.
Johnson, of Aspley Road, Bedford was locked up for three years, having been found guilty of robbery by a jury.
Johnson was one of 12 criminals jailed who had their photo released by Cambridgeshire Police during August – with others including burglars, shoplifters and drug dealers.
