Man accused of injuring biker remanded

A Union Mills man accused of injuring a teenager biker will stand trial.

Ryan Kneen, of Close Y Lhergy, appeared at Douglas Courthouse this week where committal proceedings took place.

The 26-year- old has been charged with causing serious bodily harm to the 16-year- old by driving dangerously on Peel Road on April 15.

He's also been accused of driving whilst disqualified and of taking a vehicle without the owner's consent.

He will appear at the Court of General Gaol Delivery on August 4 - there was no application for bail and he was remanded at the Isle of Man Prison until that date.
