Written by HFM News on 14th July 2021
A man has appeared in Court and admitted stealing a car which later crashed in Market Harborough, causing over £10,000-worth of damage.
The Vauxhall Corsa ended up wedged on top of another car, after it smashed through a wall and collided with vehicles in the car park next to the Cinnamon Lounge on Northampton Road, in the early hours of July 16th last year.
Alfie McCracken, 29, of New Street Desborough, has appeared at Leicester Crown Court and pleaded guilty to Aggravated Vehicle Taking, during which the vehicle was driven dangerously on Lenthall Square, Bath Street, and Northampton Road.
He was released on conditional bail ahead of sentencing next month.
