A Milton man drove two hours to his former employer's home over a wage dispute, then smashed windows and deliberately ran the victim down as he left, a court has heard. The employer – whose name was suppressed by Judge Michael Crosbie – told the defendant it was best he look for another job. Glass was propelled 10-15 feet into the house, Judge Crosbie said. The defendant intentionally steered towards the man – driving at 30kmh - launching him on to the bonnet. He slid to the floor and Howard drove off.
