  1. Scumbag! Drug dealing, drug driving, assaulting police! And probably doesn’t work either. This guy lives on the estate next to the truck place, and has been from all accounts a complete nuisance. As far as I’ve been told, they have a little boy living there. They should be shot.

    Just wish they would get rid of these animals.
