A drunk Crewe man smashed up a car left in his flat's allocated parking space with a hammer – despite not being able to drive.
Gavin Glover does not drive or own a car but held onto the space outside his rented home in Crewe for over 12 years.
In December, Glover lost his temper when a neighbour's boyfriend left his Volkswagen Polo in the disused spot.
The 58-year-old attacked the car with a hammer - smashing the windscreen, rear window and rear passenger window.
Glover attended Crewe Magistrates' Court On Thursday (January 12), where he was ordered to pay £300 to the owner of the hammer-hit Polo.
Glover admitted criminal damage, was conditionally discharged for 12 months and now faces eviction from his flat.
The Crewe man had consumed a large amount of alcohol before he attacked the vehicle.
At court, Glover was remorseful and said he was ashamed about the whole incident.
This car parking dispute between neighbours in the block of flats had been going on for several years.
