Mobility scooter thief who left man to die in Stroud is jailed


A woman who stole a disabled man’s mobility scooter, dragged him along the ground, and left him for dead has been jailed.

Kimberley Ann Hawkins pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of Neil Shadwick in Stroud following the incident in January 2023.

Mr Shadwick’s eldest daughter, Victoria Bentley, said her “incredibly vulnerable” father must have been “terrified” at being left to die in a supermarket car park in sub-zero temperatures.

Hawkins was sentenced at Gloucester Crown Court to six and a half years in jail.
