A 'rough diamond' who gets into trouble and 'parties hard' was arrested in Liverpool after taking a work van without permission and testing positive for cocaine, a court heard. Luke Frost, previously of Kent Close, Worksop, was stopped in a Ford Transit van in Leeds Street, Liverpool, after he pulled around a stationary vehicle at a red traffic light.
Frost tried to give police false details and could not remember his date of birth, Nottingham Crown Court heard on January 5. Officers formed the view Frost was under the influence of something and had white matter in the corner of his mouth.
He was in Liverpool for work and had taken cocaine and cannabis. He had taken the work van without permission and 'just wanted to go home', said Stefan Fox, prosecuting.
