STOLEN' CAR HAD BEEN BURIED

Mr. and Mrs. Jon Dawn were tired of their old car, so Mr. Dawn drove it to a
building site in Wales where he worked and buried it with a mechanical
digger.Mr. Dawn worked on the site at Dinas Mawdwy, near Glamoragn, driving
bulldozers, but had been seen driving a mechanical digger on the site
although he had no authority to do so.

In a statement to the police, Mrs. Dawn said that her husband had telephoned
her from Wales and told her that he had got rid of the car so she reported it
stolen to police and madea claim.The couple appeared before South Shields magistrates yesterday, charged
with trying to obtain 800 from the National Insurance by deception.
