One worker told police he had 'dumped waste in nearly every street with a dead end in Glasgow'.
Stuart Allison, 53, the director of a 'Man with a Van' business, and his employee Steven Hutton, 44, were caught dumping household waste on Dalsetter Crescent in Drumchapel.
Police attended the homes of Allison, of Bearsden, and Hutton, of Coatbridge, in December 2020 and seized several electronic devices including iPhones and arrested both men. While in custody Hutton confirmed that he had worked for his cousin Allison but had recently been sacked. He also stated to police that he 'had dumped wasted in nearly every street with a dead end in Glasgow'.
The fiscal told the court that on the evening of July 24, 2020, much of the waste at Dalsetter Crescent was consumed by fire. There is no suggestion that Allison or Hutton were involved in the fire. Allison and Hutton were not responsible for dumping the tyres. Another individual has previously been convicted and imprisoned in relation to dumping the tyres.Stuart Allison was fined £750 and ordered to pay compensation of £1,900 to Glasgow City Council for the clean-up.
