30-year-old Alex Rose and 25-year-old Charles Pardoe chased 21-year-old William Birchard and 22-year-old Darren George through Sunbury-on-Thames before deliberately ramming their bike at high speed. Both victims died as a result of the collision.
Rose and Pardoe were convicted of murder at Guildford Crown Court. Rose was sentenced to life with a minimum term of 34 years, while Pardoe was given a minimum of 29 years. Together, the pair must serve at least 63 years behind bars.

Afternoon. Sorry. Police. How can I help? Hello. I need to report a theft of a vehicle. Okay. So, someone taken your vehicle. This is the shocking moment a killer from the UK calmly called 999 to report his pickup truck stolen. But just hours earlier, that same vehicle had been used to hunt down and kill two young men on an ebike. The driver was 30-year-old Alex Rose. His passenger and accomplice, 25-year-old Charles Bardau, was by his side throughout, and together they are now serving a combined minimum of 63 years in prison. On the night of the 22nd of July 2024, Rose believed people were trying to break into his property in Sunbury on Temps. He had been burgled earlier in the year, and with no suspects ever caught, he had grown suspicious and angry. When he thought he saw people outside again, Rose decided not to call police, but to deal with it himself. He called on his friend Charles Pardau to help. At first, they searched on foot. Then, Rose climbed into his black Ford Raptor pickup truck with Pardo in the passenger seat. The two men began driving around, determined to track down whoever they believed was trespassing near his home. But the people they encountered were not burglars. They were 21-year-old William Burkett and 22-year-old Darren George. The two friends were out riding a Tallaria Sting electric bike heading to a pub in Ashford. They had nothing to do with Rose, nothing to do with burglary, and no reason to be targeted. But in Rose’s mind, they were intruders. When Rose spotted the ebike, he became convinced William and Darren were the people on his property. He accelerated, pushing the Raptor to more than 60 mph in a 30 zone. The ebike riders realized they were being pursued. They swerved the wrong way around Sunbury Cross roundabout and then rode the wrong way down a motorway slip road onto the A316. Rose followed without hesitation, also going the wrong way, headlights blazing. A road collision expert later told the court Rose was not just driving recklessly. He was deliberately using his truck as a weapon. The chase ended when Rose rammed the ebike from behind. The impact was catastrophic. William Burke had suffered multiple skull fractures and fatal brain injuries. He died at the scene. Darren George was rushed to hospital but later died the same day. Two young men lost their lives within minutes. Rose did not stop. He didn’t check on the victims. Instead, he calmly performed a three-point turn and drove away, leaving the men lying on the road. Later that night, he began his cover up. He parked the Ford Raptor away from his home, walked back on foot, and phoned 999. In a calm voice, he claimed his pickup truck had been stolen. It was a calculated lie. Rose also planned to flee the country. With the help of his girlfriend, Taranag, she booked hotel rooms, arranged one-way flights to Istanbul, and carried more than £4,000 in cash. at Birmingham airport. Police arrested both Rose and Knacks before they could board their flight. Pardau was arrested later. Siri police quickly pieced the case together. CCTV and dash cam footage captured the chase and the collision. Witnesses described the pursuit as terrifying. Forensic analysis confirmed the Raptor had struck the ebike and Rose’s false report of a stolen vehicle collapsed under the weight of evidence. The truth was undeniable. The trial took place at Guilford Crown Court. Prosecutors told the jury this was not an accident. It was deliberate. Rose intended to kill or cause serious harm and Pardo sitting beside him throughout was guilty under joint enterprise law. After hearing all the evidence, the jury convicted Rose and Pardo of two counts of murder. Rose was also found guilty of perverting the course of justice. Nags was convicted of assisting an offender. On the 22nd of September 2025, sentencing was handed down. The judge told Rose he had hunted down his victims and used his truck as a weapon. He said the young men on the ebike were especially vulnerable, and he condemned Rose for showing no mercy and no remorse. Rose was sentenced to life in prison with a minimum term of 34 years. Pardo was also given life with a minimum of 29 years. Nags was jailed for 3 years. Together, Rose and Pardo must serve at least 63 years before parole can even be considered. In court, the families of the victims gave heartbreaking statements. “William’s family described him as handsome, funny, and bright.” They said, “To say we miss him is an understatement. The ache in our hearts will never go away.” Darren’s family spoke of his humor and his energy. His father summed up his grief in just four words. I loved that boy. The courtroom fell silent. Judge’s final words. The judge told Rose and Pardo, “You pursued these young men at speed, the wrong way around a roundabout and down a slip road. You ran them from behind, and when they lay dying, you left them.” This was murder of the highest seriousness. Two young men are dead, to families have been torn apart, and to killers will spend most of their lives in prison. Alex Rose thought he was protecting his home. Instead, he killed to innocent strangers and threw away his own future. Justice has been delivered, but for the families of William Burkard and Darren George, the pain will never end. This is the case of Alex Rose and Charles Pardo. Mistaken identity, cold-blooded murder, and a combined 63 years in prison. Sorry, police. How can I help? Hello.
