An accused thief has been cleared of robbing Formula One star Lando Norris of his unique £144,000 designer watch at the Euro 2020 final.
The McLaren driver, 23, was held in a headlock by an unknown man while the Richard Mille timepiece - one of only five in the world - was wrenched from his wrist by another mugger. He was targeted as he walked to his sports car after England's heart breaking defeat to Italy on penalties.
Liam Williams, 25, from Bootle, Merseyside, was said to have snatched the watch leaving his DNA on the racing driver's arm. Williams claimed he travelled to London with three friends that day, hoping to 'bunk in' to Wembley to watch the Euro final as they had no tickets.
