A MOTORIST from Barrow is due to be sentenced after crashing into a man's car at up to 70mph and leaving him for dead.
Callum Jake Wharton left dad-of-two Ray Hayes with a broken arm and needing a knee operation after crashing into his car at around 70mph in Friars Lane in Barrow on June 13 of last year.
When the 21-year-old appeared at Preston Crown Court in January, Wharton pleaded guilty to attempting to pervert the course of justice, driving while disqualified and driving without insurance.
Wharton, of Greengate Street, Barrow, will return to Preston Crown Court on Monday for sentencing.
