The van 'became a weapon' in his hands
A van driver killed a grandmother after driving into her on the pavement - and left her there. Martin Illic, aged 38, of St Leonard's Way, Forest Town, was just a 10-minute drive home from his local.
She died at the scene from multiple injuries and was only found after an hour by residents on the evening of September 26 last year. Illic had driven away from the scene in his damaged van with a flat tyre.Sentencing him to six years in prison, Judge Stuart Rafferty KC said Illic went to the pub with the intention of spending the night there. He was drinking and buying people drinks and was bought drinks in return.
The judge was satisified on the evidence that Illic set off in his van at excessive speed over the speed limit and struck Mrs Wagstaff, a mother of six, grandmother to 21 and great-grandmother to 14.
