    Four months in jail seems a bit steep, you would get less for kicking the head off someone in Temple Bar after a drinking session...

    A man who blew up a roadside camera after he was caught speeding has been jailed for four months.

    Railway worker Craig Moore, from Doncaster, thought he could destroy the evidence if he oblitered the camera.

    The 28-year-old used explosives taken from his work welding railway lines to destroy the camera, causing £11,700 of damage.

    But the images of him speeding through the Hyde area of Manachester were stored in the camera base, Minshull Crown Court heard.

    And images of him returning to wreak revenge on the carnera were also stored in the base.

    Moore admitted a charge of damaging property at a hearing last month.

    4 months for using explosives in a public place? Not steep enough IMO. It's not as if he just got an angle grinder to it.
