 His reckless driving on the A4 Bath Road in Reading, Berkshire, on February 2, was captured on the ambulance dash-cam and partly recorded by a paramedic in the passenger seat on her phone. Butler was described as a "nasty piece of work" and "aggressive" by neighbours at his former home in Rainham, Essex. A neighbour named Christine told Mail Online : "He's a nasty piece of work that man. "He would stand across the road staring at us and waving his fists at us over nothing. One day he threw a plastic block at me." When approached by journalists at his home, Butler refused to comment and shouted: "Leave now. I am not happy about this." He then stormed out of the building barefoot to take photos of reporters and call the police, but was left locked out when he realised he had left his key inside. Following an investigation carried out by Thames Valley Police Butler, of Windermere Road, Reading was charged with dangerous driving and obstructing/hindering an emergency worker. H){kind=link}
