Two brothers have been jailed after stealing high-value cars in a crime spree across three counties. Samuel and Thomas Eddleston had a device which allowed them to get into and drive Range Rovers and Jaguars.
The 'sophisticated' conspiracy involved the theft of 12 vehicles - also including an Audi - worth a total of £472,141 between September and November 2021. The Eddleston brothers took 11 of the vehicles from Greater Manchester, Cheshire and Stoke-on-Trent.
And they drove five vehicles to Essex on cloned plates where they were stripped for parts. Now Samuel Eddleston, aged 29, has been jailed for 29 months and 28-year-old Thomas Eddleston has been locked up for 27 months at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court. A third man is still to be sentenced.
