A 21-year-old man is fined after police say he ate a takeaway on a police vehicle outside a London police station and caused damage. Police and court accounts describe how Adam (Bachir-Belmehdi) approached a police car parked near Bishopsgate Police Station in the early hours of 3 May. CCTV and other footage reportedly show him laying across the bonnet and windscreen while his friend photographed him. One report also states that, after eating, he rips off the police car’s wing mirror, which police treat as criminal damage. Authorities say he was chased by officers following the incident. The man is convicted of criminal damage and is ordered to pay a £480 fine, according to the reporting. The accounts consistently describe the location in London, the use of CCTV/video evidence, the man’s position on the bonnet and windscreen while eating, and the criminal damage outcome that leads to the fine.
