A man’s been bailed after admitting stealing a car and driving it while banned from the roads.

Ashley Graham Kelly of West Hill Avenue in Castletown was due to appear before Deputy High Bailiff Christopher Arrowsmith but was excused attending because of the current coronavirus lockdown.

At a previous hearing, the 28 year old pleaded guilty to driving while disqualified, having no insurance and taking a vehicle on December 5 but denied drink driving on the same date.

He was bailed to appear in court again on April 15.
