Policer officer shot by Raoul Moat was haunted by crazed attacker in his nightmares
A police officer who was blinded by Raoul Moat was haunted by the gunman in his nightmares, he revealed in recordings before his death.Yet the one person whose features he could make out in his mind's eye was Moat – and the murderer tormented his nights, the Mirror reports.Tragically, 19 months after the July 2010 attack, David – a dad-of-two who was an officer with Northumbria Police – took his own life.
Police launched a huge manhunt for Moat after the former bouncer gunned down his ex-girlfriend Samantha Stobbart and murdered her boyfriend Chris Brown. Minutes after ringing 999 to declare “war” on the police, the monster opened fire on David as he sat in his patrol car in Newcastle. In a clip recorded the day before the killer’s accomplices, Karl Ness and Qhuram Awan, were jailed in 2011, David told Tony: “I had a visit from Mr Moat. I haven’t had that for a few days or a few weeks actually.
In the aftermath of the horror, it was reported that David’s shooting by evil Moat was random. But in the tapes the officer – who had arrested Moat for driving without a licence in 2009 – told Tony he believed the killer attacked him on purpose, driving past twice before crawling to the window and pointing his gun barrel in his face.
He went on: “When I read that report, honestly, it was like hitting me with a hammer. You can read through the contents of the calls, what Raoul Moat said, word for word. That was the first time I knew that something had gone drastically wrong in that control room.”
