Thomas Kehoe, 29, of Lathum Close, Prescot, appeared at Chester Crown Court on Friday where he faced sentence for a range of charges relating to activity in Runcorn and Birmingham. Oliver King, prosecuting, told how Kehoe had attracted the attentions of the authorities in Birmingham on February 18 when detectives had been watching a white van driven by Kehoe as it visited various residential areas, stopping for a short time in each one, and decided to intervene.
When the vehicle parked up in a cul-de-sac and Kehoe emerged, a detective approached to speak to him, but Kehoe saw them, jumped back in and tried to drive off. Another police car pulled across his path, “boxing him in”, so Kehoe abandoned the van and ran away.
