A man rammed his van into three of his ex-girlfriends' homes and deliberately hit a car being driven by one of them. Daniel Preston rammed a car being driven by the mother of his child and also struck the front wall outside her house.
Preston then drove to the addresses of two other exes and rammed into their houses too. Prosecutor Nick Tatlow said Preston had been in a relationship with the mother of his child for five years and he asked her to his house to 'make things better between them' on August 9, 2022, reports StokeOnTrentLive.
Mr Tatlow added: "She told him she wanted to leave. He said he couldn't find his keys to open the door, but he helped her out through a window. He was talking nonsense. He told her he'd taken cocaine. As she sat in her car she saw him walk towards her - she shouted at him to go away. He went to his car and drove off. She drove away and saw him turn left. He rammed her car. She was petrified.
"She sounded her horn. He pushed into other cars and the front wall of her house. He drove away. The police were called at 11.17pm. Three other cars had been damaged."
The court heard that between about 3am and 3.30am in the early hours of August 10, 2022 he went to another ex's house. Mr Tatlow said: "He went to Spode Street where another former partner lived. They had an on-off relationship. He didn't take the break up well. He rammed the vehicle into the front of her house.
"The collision woke her and she heard him drive away. She could see parts of the car left behind and that her house had been damaged.
"The defendant drove to Wakefield Road, Penkhull, [where another ex partner lived] and rammed his vehicle into the front of her house. She saw him driving away. She called the police. He was obviously drunk. He was arrested."
Preston, of Victoria Street, Stone, pleaded guilty to possession of cannabis with intent to supply, driving while disqualified, driving without insurance, and criminal damage.
As well as being jailed for six years, Preston was banned from driving for 67 months and must undertake an extended test.
