FAMILY'S TRIBUTES TO DAD KNOCKED OFF BIKE IN FATAL CHASE
LYELL TWEED
'This has turned our world upside down, we're devastated...

A TEENAGER who caused the death of a much-loved dad-of-four by knocking him off his motorbike in an apparently unprovoked chase has been jailed.

Shikeo Bell caused 'unspeakable grief' to the family of 43-year-old Carl Dawson - known as 'Glasses' - when he chased him through the streets of Moston and Harpurhey before knocking him off his bike, causing him 'catastrophic injuries.

The death of the grandad-to-be, who was one of 11 siblings, was described as 'utterly, utterly needless' and was part of a crime spree of robberies which saw 19-year-old Bell jailed for seven years and two months at Manchester Crown Court yesterday.

The crash happened on September 7, 2021, when Bell was 17, on the junction of Hillier Street and Princedom Street in Harpurhey.

CCTV footage played to the court showed the pursuit, which lasted around 45 to 50 seconds, where Bell was driving a stolen Seat Leon driving at Carl at speeds of nearly 50mph and gradually getting closer and closer to him before knocking him off.

Bell drove off from the scene leaving Carl with fatal head injuries, and was seen by police driving the same car in the days after the incident. The court heard that Bell drove cars used for drug dealing but was alone at the time of the fatal incident.
