The shirtless passenger, Charlie Burns, 21, was reported to have been drunk when visiting the area that day and had drunk up to seven bottles of lager. He was knocked to the floor by the vehicle's lifting forks.
Hooper shared: “I thought we have a bit of a problem here, there's two of them, half my age, I didn't know what they had in terms of weapons, or what they were capable of doing."
