Farmer who flipped car off his land found not guilty of criminal damage | ITV News

A County Durham farmer who used a tractor to flip a car off his driveway has been found not guilty of dangerous driving and criminal damage.

Robert Hooper, 57, was on trial at Durham Crown Court after he used his tractor to lift a Vauxhall Corsa and drop it on the road outside his property in Newbiggin-in-Teesdale last June.

Passenger Charlie Burns, 21, who had been visiting the area that day and had drunk up to seven bottles of lager, was knocked to the floor by the vehicle's lifting forks.
