- A pavement cycling dispute ended in a fatal assault.
- Wright-Walters was convicted of manslaughter.
- He is expected to serve three years and eight months before release on licence.

## Summary

Andre Wright-Walters, 38, was jailed after punching James Gbadamosi, 67, in Balham, south-west London, following a dispute over a child riding a Lime bike on the pavement. Gbadamosi fell, hit his head and died in hospital two weeks later; the case highlights the fatal consequences of an argument escalating into violence.

A jury at Kingston-upon-Thames Crown Court convicted Wright-Walters of manslaughter after he denied the charge. He was sentenced to five years and six months, with release on licence expected after three years and eight months. Carla Brenton, who called Wright-Walters before the attack, was cleared of manslaughter.
