Instead, he said he had been a victim himself on several occasions. Once, his wheelchair was locked with a bicycle chain, he claimed.
'I was waiting behind the bushes at the other side of the road to see if any cars would park illegally when I felt someone behind me.
'I tried to turn but couldn't and discovered that my wheels had been locked,' he claimed.
He then had to wait a few hours for the police to cut the bicycle chain before he could move, he said.
