A killer driver who was arrested at Birmingham Airport before he could board a one-way flight to Istanbul with £4,000 in cash and his girlfriend by his side has been jailed.

Alex Rose, 30, and partner Tara Knaggs, 25, were detained at the airport on July 23 last year just hours after he had callously mowed down two innocent men riding an e-bike in Sunbury Cross, Surrey.

At around 12.52am the day before, the 30-year-old had ploughed into the young victims with his pick-up truck after he wrongly thought they had been trying to burgle his home.
