Pavement Parking campaign rolled out across Charnwood

A MAJOR crackdown on pavement parking is being rolled out across Charnwood following a successful pilot scheme in Loughborough.

The Cars Off Pavements campaign was launched in Loughborough in March to stop vehicles from blocking pavements and has led to a 75 per cent reduction in incidents at four hotspot areas.

Blocked pavements put vulnerable people at risk as pedestrians in wheelchairs, parents with pushchairs or the partially sighted are forced to walk on busy roads to get by.

Teenage shop robber is jailed

A teenager who attempted to rob Wanlip Convenience Store, Birstall, on February 17th has been sentenced to four years' detention by Leicester Crown Court.

The youth, who cannot be named because of a court order, admitted robbery at Mark Convenience Store in Thurmaston the previous day. On both occasions he brandished a menacing firearm, which police said could easily have been mistaken for a sawn-off shotgun, but which turned out to be an air pistol. He admitted having the air pistol on both occasions. CCTV footage from the Thurmaston robbery was played in court.

In the Birstall attempted robbery, the youth fled empty-handed, chased by the shopkeeper, dropping a carrier bag with his fingerprints on. Police found the unloaded airgun dumped in dense brambles, also with his fingerprints on. They also found a pile of the defendant's clothing, abandoned and set alight.
