Two men who stole an Audi at knifepoint and then failed in an attempt to rob a KFC restaurant have been locked up.

Telford Justice Centre / Telford Magistrates Court stock

They had both been at the BP Garage in Woodside, Telford, at around 11pm when a man had pulled up in an Audi to fill up with petrol. The victim handed over his wallet and was told that the contents 'were not enough', and to give up the keys to his car.Fearful of being attacked, the owner of the car told him how to start it, and Ivors and Easthope sped away from the scene towards the Madeley Court Hotel.

The cashier responded by saying that he was working for minimum wage and he did not care what happened to him, and would not be handing over the money.Easthope then left the building and Ivors, who had no licence or insurance, drove them towards Ironbridge Road where they were stopped by police and arrested.

Mr Beardwell added that the man had sold the car due to the experience, had required six weeks off work, and was now panicked by hooded men late at night.
