A footballer who used false number plates to avoid speeding and parking tickets has been given a suspended jail sentence. He used the number plate of a car that belonged to a retired police inspector to run up £780 worth of fines.
Liam Hebberd the son of Derby County and Southampton midfielder Trevor Hebberd, has already clocked up nine points on his driving licence, which would mean one more speeding ticket or motoring offence would see him banned from driving. So instead of driving carefully for a while, he decided that using false number plates would be a better idea.
Unfortunately for him the police had been informed by their former colleague that somebody had cloned his car number plate because he was receiving parking fines and speeding tickets, these amounted to £780.
However at the time of being stopped he had actually changed the number plates back to the original ones, but at the same time a butterfly knife was found in the car and when the police checked the car insurance, it was found that he had none either.
He was given a four month prison sentence which was suspended for a year and has been ordered to do two hundred hours of unpaid work.
