A man has been jailed for a “brutal and sustained attack” on two parking ticket inspectors in Purfleet. 

Rodall Misuri, 31, from Plaistow, was given a ticket for parking dangerously on double yellow lines outside Purfleet Primary School during the morning of 22 November 2018. 

He punched and knocked the inspector who had issued the ticket to the ground before stamping on his head and punching him while he remained on the floor.

A second inspector tried to intervene but Misuri hit him as well, knocking the officer unconscious. 

Members of the public were then able to restrain the attacker before he eventually drove away from the scene. 

The first officer sustained a fractured eye socket while the second needed stitches. 

Misuri was arrested the following day and charged with GBH with intent, ABH and criminal damage. 

The 31-year-old admitted to the charges at Basildon Crown Court on Monday, 24 August. He was sentenced to two years and four months in prison. 

“Rodall Misuri carried out a brutal and sustained attack on two civil enforcement officers who were just going about their job,” said Detective Constable Dan Stevens.

“He had been given a ticket because the car he was in was parked dangerously outside a primary school and he completely over-reacted to this.

“No-one should got to work and be assaulted. It is never acceptable and it should never be tolerated.

“Misuri’s assault left the two enforcement officers with some really nasty injuries. All because he was angry over a parking ticket.

“He now faces time behind bars and I hope he uses that time to consider the consequences of his actions.

“I want to thank the members of the public who stepped in to help the two officers. Without their intervention, the result of this assault could have been much worse.”
