Masked Machete Gangster Snaps Up Jewellery in Territorial Raid

On 25 July last year at around 3.30pm, Creddy Taylor and a gang of masked thugs stormed a home on Wentworth Crescent wielding a machete. The victim fled in terror as Taylor made off with cash and jewellery.

Creddy Taylor Caught and Convicted

Creddy Taylor, 21, from Gamble Hill Place, Leeds, was forensically linked to the aggravated burglary. He denied involvement and pleaded not guilty, but jurors weren’t convinced. On Friday 12 January, Taylor was found guilty and sentenced to 4 years behind bars.

Police Deliver Verdict and Justice

Detective Constable Sam Williams of the District Crime Team said:

“We welcome the sentence handed down to Taylor today, he is a prolific offender. Taylor thought he wouldn’t get caught and lied about his accomplices. I hope the sentence brings the victim some justice knowing that Taylor is now behind bars.”
