After a high-speed crash in suburban Dunedin, the driver left one of his passengers bloodied and unconscious and ran from the scene. "I have to get the f... out of here," Reagan Mano John Heke (37) said, before bolting down Corstorphine Rd. The force of the impact with a parked vehicle ripped the rear door from the Subaru that Heke was driving. Heke became aggressive and tried to reverse his wrecked car down the road. However, Judge Michael Crosbie said it was clear drug use was a significant factor in Heke's pattern of offending.
