Camping!!

Caravan stolen with owner inside it

A caravan owner who was taking a nap was rudely woken when thieves drove it over a kerb.

William Roberts was using it while his home was being renovated but the £17,500 vehicle proved too tempting for crooks.

After the 73-year-old awoke and realised what had happened, he fled when the criminals stopped at a lay-by.

Mr Roberts, from Towyn, North Wales, said: ‘I’m lucky, if I hadn’t woken up I could have ended up anywhere or with an iron bar through my head.’

Two people denied theft at Llandudno magistrates.
