A teenage thug has been caught on camera knocking a police officer off his motorbike while driving a stolen car.
Callum Fellows, 18, was driving a dark blue Seat Leon when PC Steve Lovering pulled up alongside him as he waited at a set of traffic lights on Ashes Road in Oldbury, West Midlands.
CCTV and the officer’s body-cam captured the shocking moment PC Lovering was sent sprawling. Fellows reversed the car before ramming into the officer, knocking him on to the other side of the road.
Video shows the officer shouting out in pain before radioing colleagues for help as Fellows sped away during the incident on August 27.
He said: ‘I’ve been deliberately rammed off my bike from that vehicle. It’s gone left, left towards Blackheath.
‘Two IC1 (white) males on board.’
Fellows narrowly missed running over the officer when he turned onto the wrong side of the road before going through a set of red traffic lights.

Shocked members of the public can be seen rushing to help PC Lovering while one woman photographed Fellow’s registration number on her mobile phone.
One man asks the officer: ‘Are you alright? Are you sure you don’t need to sit down?’
PC Lovering replies: ‘I’m good thanks, mate.
‘Worst thing about it – it’s not the first time it’s happened, it won’t be the last. It was a stolen car. Thank you everyone very much for stopping.’
Other witnesses then helped the officer haul his motorcycle up off the road. Follows was caught and the Seat was revealed to have been stolen in a car key burglary days earlier.

PC Lovering picked Fellows out in an ID parade and he was arrested.
Fellows, of Wolverhampton, admitted assault, dangerous driving, criminal damage and driving while disqualified.
He’s also admitted receiving stolen goods, three other charges of dangerous driving and disqualified driving, as well as stealing a motor vehicle.
Fellows is now awaiting sentence.
PC Lovering said: ‘It was pure luck that there weren’t any cars near me when I was knocked off the bike, as it could have been much worse.
‘I had some some back and shoulder pain, but nothing was broken.
‘It was really heartening to see so many people stopping to help and check that I was OK and offer their help.’
