Sir Mark Rowley hits out at bringing of case against Pc Paul Fisher, who was heading to scene of terror attack when he lost control of BMW.
The decision to prosecute an armed officer who crashed while racing to the scene of a terrorist attack has been described as “appalling” by the Metropolitan Police Commissioner.
Sir Mark Rowley said no other country in the world would haul one of its most highly trained officers before the courts for bravely trying to preserve life, as he called for the system of accountability to be urgently reviewed.
His comments came after a jury at Southwark Crown Court cleared Pc Paul Fisher of dangerous driving following a six-day trial.
