A NINETEEN-YEAR-OLD Stevenage man has been charged with a number of offences
following two robberies at post office stores last week in North Hertfordshire.
Treymaine Davis from Oaks Cross, Stevenage appeared at Stevenage Magistrates
Court on September 22 charged with:
1. A robbery at Whitwell Post Office, High Street, Whitwell on September 19. At
around 7pm a man went into the store and threatened the female member of staff
with a large kitchen knife, demanding money from the till and cigarettes. The
offender was then seen to leave the store with the property and make off in a
small black car.
2. Theft of a black Renault Clio from Denton Road, Stevenage sometime between
September 16 and September 19.
3. A burglary at Denton Road, Stevenage between September 16 and September 19.
4. A robbery at Ashwell Stores, High Street, Ashwell on September 20. At around
6.25pm a man went into the store, threatened the male store owner and then made
off, again in a small, dark-coloured vehicle with a quantity of cash and
cigarettes.
5. Driving a motor vehicle with no insurance.
6. Driving a motor vehicle ‘otherwise than in accordance with a licence
authorising the driving of a vehicle in this class’.
Davis was remanded in custody at the court hearing to reappear before Stevenage
magistrates at a date yet to be fixed. He was arrested at around 10.45pm on
September 20 after being pulled over by police in Staffordshire.
From Monday
(September 18), new legislation will mean that anyone carrying
A child under
the age of 12 or 135cm in height in their car will need to use approved child
restraints such as a booster seat.
The legislation
has been introduced in a bid to reduce child injuries and casualties on the
road by up to 2000 a year nationally. The laws apply to any child carried in
any car, even if you don't have children of your own but give someone else's
child a lift.
Children over
the age of 12 or 135cm tall (approx. 4ft 5in) can use an adult belt. Children
under the age of three must continue to use a restraint appropriate for their
weight in any vehicle (except a taxi if no restraints available).
There are a
few exceptions which allow children to travel in the rear and use an adult seat
belt:
In a taxi, if the right
child restraint is not available;
For a short
distance in an unexpected necessity, (for example emergency journey to
hospital) if the right child restraint is not available;
Where two occupied child
seats in the rear prevent the fitting of a third child seat.
A seat
protected by a frontal air–bag unless the air–bag has been deactivated.
Further information is available on the Department for Transport web site.
