He then kicked out at three police officers attempting to detain him, bruising one on the shin. A witness described Davis as an "animal possessed”.

He pleaded guilty to dangerous driving, assaulting a PC, driving while disqualified, no insurance and driving over the prescribed limit.

Davis was disqualified from driving for four years.

A SCHIZOPHRENIC with a concerning "sexual appetite" was jailed for almost 12 years after a judge said he posed a significant risk to young children.

Even after his release from prison, 32-year-old Javeed Rashid will be subject to an extended licence period of eight years.

Rashid, of Ashwell Road, Manningham, was jailed for a series of serious sexual offences against four young girls.

Judge Jonathan Rose told him: "I am quite satisfied, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that you pose a significant risk of serious harm to young children.”

Rashid, who has mental health difficulties which affect his intellectual functioning, claimed that voices had been telling him to do things, but Judge Rose said the defendant understood the difference between right and wrong.

"There can be no question but that you understood full well that what you did to these little girls was wrong and was bad," said the judge.

Rashid, who admitted offences including oral rape of one girl and attempted oral rape of another, was jailed for a total of 11 years and 11 months.

Judge Rose said no court could fail to be very concerned by Rashid's "very significant sexual appetite" and there was no treatment that a hospital could offer.
