A 38 year old policeman has appeared in court charged with causing a serious
injury by dangerous driving.
Avon and Somerset police officer Duncan Verel has been charged with causing
serious injury to Martin Emslie by driving his Ford Mondeo car dangerously
on the A361 at Dean, Somerset, one day last September.
Verel, from Shepton Mallet, Somerset, appeared at Exeter magistrates court
where he did not enter a plea to the single charge.
The JPs were told the case was not suitable to be heard in the lower court
and Verel will have to appear before a judge next month in Exeter Crown
Court. He was bailed.
