A CROWTHORNE man has been charged with a string of offences after a police officer was taken to hospital with head injuries earlier this week.
Stephen Adby, of Crowthorne, was charged with a count of assault by beating, a count of criminal damage, two counts of assault by beating of an emergency worker, one count of driving when alcohol level was above the limit, one count of driving while disqualified, one count of taking a motor vehicle without the owners’ consent and one count of driving with no insurance.
This comes after a series on incidents in the village on Wednesday, January 5, in which a police officer sustained a head injury.
The officers were responding to an initial report of a woman being assaulted and one was taken to hospital for treatment on their head injury.
They have since been discharged.
Adby appeared at Reading Magistrates’ Court today [January 7] and was remanded in custody to appear at Reading next Friday (14/1) at 10am.
