A Bolton man has been ordered to pay almost £2,500 after dumping 24 bags of rubbish on the street.
Mihai Cristea of South Street failed to attend Bolton Magistrates Court on Monday, October 31 after being prosecuted for two fly tipping offences and was fined £1,320 and ordered to pay £1,176 costs in his absence.
The court heard how three black bin bags of waste were found dumped at the back of Alston Street, Great Lever, with a further 21 bags dumped at the back of South Street.
Documents inside the bags led enforcement officers to Mr Cristea’s address. He was initially handed a fixed penalty notice which remained unpaid.
