Sunderland racist smashed up man's BMW after turning up to ex-girlfriend's home and demanding money

A racist turned up to his ex-girlfriend's home and demanded money before smashing up her ex-boyfriend's BMW 3 series.

Dale Liddy turned up to his ex-partner's home on January 31 this year with three of his friends and started banging on her windows and demanding money that he believed he was owed. But when the 29-year-old saw that her ex-boyfriend's BMW was parked outside and saw him inside her home, he began hurling sickening racist abuse before the man's car was smashed up.

Liddy, of Duncan Street, Pallion, Sunderland, appeared at Newcastle's Moot Hall to be sentenced for racially aggravated criminal damage, threats to damage property, and two counts of racially aggravated threatening behaviour.
