"I don’t know his proper name. I just called him Curly, because he had curly hair. I’ve seen him in the street a few times. I was cutting the grass. He said: "Nothing whatsoever to be honest. The only person that’s worrying me is the person I got my drugs off, Curly. I haven’t seen him in a while, over three weeks.
"I said, can you take my car and drop it off at mine mate. He said yeah, he was sound. It’s just over half a mile, maybe three quarters of a mile. "Loads of roads were blocked off apparently." Owen recalled that he had retrieved his car using the spare key, and that Curly had posted his key through the letterbox "a couple of days after".
"If I knew that was going to happen, my car would have stayed with me. If my car’s been involved, I’m not impressed in the slightest. I would never have given anyone my keys if I’d known this was going to happen. "I'm just trying to see in the window if I can see air fresheners in it. That is my make, model and colour and everything. You can clearly see that. My Mrs will throttle him, I'm telling you.
"She asked me was this Will’s brother. I hadn’t a clue. I didn’t even know Will. I’ve never heard of him, I’ve never heard the name before. "I don’t think his picture was on the news. It was disgusting and a bad thing, but it’s not something I dwell on. I just hope they get him."
