• Six Tanks rammer jailed for four years over Mitchell St ‘rampage’

THE Supreme Court has released footage of the moment Dale Talbot’s LandCruiser ploughed into the front of the Six Tanks brewery during a drunken “rampage” on Mitchell St last year.

Talbot was jailed for a minimum of two years on Thursday after pleading guilty to recklessly endangering life in the “revenge attack” in the early hours of December 6.

The ramming followed an altercation in which Talbot was allegedly assaulted by a group of other people, one of whom is also captured on the footage throwing a chair at his car.

Talbot’s lawyer, Lyma Nguyen told the court her client had been “confronted by a gang of men” resulting in “a degree of provocation that led to the offending behaviour”.

“Mr Talbot had been brutally kicked, bashed and stomped upon by multiple men in a public place, as your honour’s able to see on the CCTV,” she said.

“He was chased by them and then he tripped and fell and was on the ground.”

Ms Nguyen said Talbot lost consciousness during the attack and was further provoked when the other man threw the chair.

“When he entered his car his body was still aching, his mind wasn’t clear, his head was spinning he said, he felt confused and he was feeling enraged,” she said.

“His treatment by the gang was unfair, he was humiliated in public, he was intoxicated, things moved very quickly.”

But Crown prosecutor Naomi Loudon said while it was accepted that Talbot was assaulted, he could have walked away.

“He has then returned to his vehicle at that point and made a decision, instead of turning home, he’s done a U turn, he’s driven the other way up Mitchell St, essentially looking for … the men that assaulted him,” she said.

In setting a head sentence of four years in jail with a non-parole period of two years, Chief Justice Michael Grant said Talbot’s conduct had “placed many members of the community in danger of serious harm or loss of life”.

The four other people involved in the initial fight were also charged over the incident and are set to contest the charges in the Darwin Local Court.
