'I have no doubt the minibus was a valuable community asset with the community putting significant resources into its purchase'
A teenager who deliberately burned out a £37,000 youth club minibus was today jailed for six months.
The club closed at 8pm on October 17, 2021, and at 9.30 pm, Tully was captured on CCTV entering the grounds of the club before the minibus was destroyed by fire but no accelerant was found at the scene. The total damage to the minibus and a primary school wall was put at just over £38,000. A defence barrister said the attack happened two weeks after Tully’s 18th birthday and was borne out of “frustration”.
“It was serious and significant damage was caused. It was foreseeable that no one else was on the site as the club had closed an hour and a half earlier.”
