The case of NSW Senior Constable Brett Rossiter, charged with allegedly throwing “an object” at a motorcycle rider, has been adjourned to October 25, 2016.
The incident occurred while the specialist command Senior Constable was performing random breath tests on Hannahs Road at Narwee, in Sydney, on Friday, November 6, 2015.
The above video of the incident comes from Dashcam Owners Australia.
It will be alleged the officer threw an object at the rider who did not stop at the RBT location. Although it cannot be seen in the video, it is alleged the rider crashed and suffer minor injuries.
The officer was charged with ‘intentionally throw object at vehicle / vessel – risk safety’ under the NSW Crimes Act 1900 – Sect 49A which carries a maximum penalty of five years’ jail.
In a recent incident where North Queensland Cowboys players threw eggs at vehicles, two of the offenders received $2500 fines.
This is the second time the case has been adjourned.
