War veteran's disgust as teenager is locked up for burglary of his home

AS an 18-year-old, Frank Burridge was laying his life down for King and Country during the Second World War.

But today the 88-year-old spoke of his disgust at the 18-year-old who he chased after with his walking stick when the teenager broke into his property in the early hours of the morning, stealing food and sources of warmth for the pensioner.

It was the fourth time Mr Burridge's his home and garage had been raided.

Despite his infirmity, poor vision and deafness, he chased Connor Winton, 18, of Pelham Road, Immingham, who was later caught and locked up for a year.

Adam Vincent murder investigation: Can you help police?

A SEALED-OFF bungalow in Scartho is now the centre of the investigation into the death of Adam Vincent, whose body parts were dumped in and around Tetney Lock.

Detectives have today said they are sure the 33-year-old was murdered in Grimsby, and are appealing to the public to help trace a white van which was probably used to dispose of Mr Vincent's body.

The large Transit-style vehicle – with a yellow sign and black lettering – is believed to have been a hire van, and is a key clue in the investigation. There is evidence of a van having been at Tetney Lock, and detectives want to hear from people who recall seeing such a vehicle in the area and in Grimsby.
