Liverpool parade attacker Paul Doyle told police the “rest of my life is ruined” as he was pulled into the back of a police van moments after the rampage.
He hit more than 100 people in the space of two minutes on 26 May at Liverpool’s victory parade and was only stopped after a bystander managed to get inside the automatic vehicle and forced its gear selector into ‘park’ mode.
The 54-year-old was arrested at the scene in Water Street just after 18:00 BST and charged later that week.
Doyle has been sentenced at Liverpool Crown Court to 21 years and six months.
