A DRUNKEN man 'walked' over a parked car as he and his friends made their way down Dukes Brow, Blackburn, a court was told.

Blackburn magistrates heard that Anthony McLoughlin stepped on to the bonnet of the Citroen Berlingo and then on to the roof before jumping down and continuing his journey.

McLoughlin, 34, of Islington, Blackburn, pleaded guilty to criminal damage. He was fined £50 and ordered to pay £50 compensation and £50 costs.

Michael Blacklidge, defending, said the incident was fuelled by drink and McLoughlin described himself as someone with a chronic alcohol addiction.

"He doesn't know how he did what he did without doing himself a mischief," said Mr Blacklidge.
