Man admits dumping fridges

A MAN has been ordered to pay £250 costs and carry out 100 hours of unpaid community work after he admitted dumping more than 10 fridges in Hull.

Jamie Greaves, 20, of Pickering Park, dumped the fridges on land at Glencoe Street on March 8. The fridges were set on fire by an unknown person causing the release of harmful pollutants.

Greaves was traced after an investigation following information from members of the public.

Jamie Cass, of Hull Council, said: "Residents throughout Hull are fed up of the mindless flytipping imposed on them by a minority of anti-social people. This successful case sends a message, loud and clear, to the mindless minority that if they persist with their activities, they will be caught and prosecuted."
