The Hunt for Raoul Moat, which is stripped across three nights on ITV1, explores the devastating impact of one man\u2019s wrath after his girlfriend walked away from their relationship following years of abuse.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While Raoul Moat was <\/span>serving time in prison for assaulting a family member, Samantha Stobbart met karate instructor Chris Brown and didn\u2019t look back. But just a few weeks into their relationship, Moat was released from prison and unleashed the full force of his rage on the couple. Samantha was shot twice, but miraculously survived. Chris, however, died of his injuries.<\/p>\n

Moat then went on the run, during which time he shot and blinded a police officer. He was eventually tracked down by the authorities and after a tense stand-off lasting more than six hours, he killed himself.<\/p>\n

Moat\u2019s initial attack took place outside a house in <\/span>Birtley, a town in <\/span>Gateshead, Tyne and Wear. The manhunt was carried out across Newcastle before ending in the village of <\/span>Rothbury in Northumberland, where he killed himself.<\/span><\/p>\n

But the drama was largely filmed in other parts of the country.<\/p>
