An ex-Salford drug dealer who moved down south following a smash and grab raid at a Porsche showroom is behind bars for a sickening pub attack in which he broke 10 bones in a man's head after necking 10 Jager Bombs.
Amos Selahor, 38, has been jailed following the 'completely mindless' attack at a pub in Ilfracombe, Devon. He also has a conviction for manslaughter having killed a man when he was 15.
