Laughing yob who stole OAP's car wanted again

A laughing yob who stole an elderly mum's Motability car is wanted by police.

Callum Carr, 24, is wanted by Merseyside Police after breaching his licence conditions following his release after serving a sentence for robbery. In 2019, Carr and three teenagers stole a Nissan X-Trail belonging to a woman who cared for her elderly mum.

A spokesperson from Merseyside Police said: "Carr is described as 5ft 5in tall, of medium build, short fair hair and blue eyes. Carr has links to Anfield and Deeside in North Wales.

"If you see Carr or hold any information, contact us via @MerPolCC on Twitter, ‘Merseyside Police Contact Centre’ on Facebook, or anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 with reference 22000452965."

Carr and the other teenagers broke into a home on Rivington Road, Wallasey, before taking a woman's handbag and keys while the owner and her mum slept. The men then drove the car to Liverpool, filled it with £31 of petrol before leaving without paying, and stolen plates were put on the vehicle.

Photos found on Carr's phone showed the gang sitting on the car roof, making hand gestures and smoking. However, after taking a terrified 16-year-old boy's iPhone in Wirral, they were rammed off the road by police in Liverpool.

The gang sniggered throughout the court appearance and Carr was sentenced to four years and 10 months in prison and was banned from driving for 38 months on March 24, 2020.
