Joby Pool, who drove off with sugary stash from Telford industrial unit, had clearly not acted on ‘spur of moment’, says prosecutor

A man referred to as the “Easter bunny” by police has been sentenced to 18 months in prison for stealing almost 200,000 Cadbury Creme Eggs.

Joby Pool, 32, stole more than £31,000 worth of the chocolate eggs when he broke into an industrial unit in Telford on 11 February and made off with the haul in a stolen lorry cab.
