'Cyclist ran me down but police refused to act' says victim, 18

A passer-by stopped the cyclist, who was trying to leave the scene, until police arrived. But officers said there was nothing they could do because the bike was not motorised.

...

Police said the suspect was already in prison for shoplifting but he will be interviewed on suspicion of careless cycling when he is freed.
