A VIOLENT criminal on a vodka and drugs bender beat up an innocent person in his car before stabbing another stranger just moments later. Thug Connor Dewhurst has a long history of violence including a brutal hammer attack on a police officer when he was just 13. He was sentenced to three years in a young offenders institute in 2009 for that offence and later escaped from custody. Since then, the now 24-year-old has been arrested, charged and jailed on several occasions for robbery, violent disorder and assault – a lengthy criminal record which Judge Philip Parry described as appalling. On this occasion, Dewhurst attacked two men within a five-minute period at around midnight on July 24, leaving one with stab wounds.
