Joe Page, a 34-year-old resident of St Michaels Road in Grimsby, has been sentenced to nine years in prison after pleading guilty to robbery and possession of a bladed article. Page’s crimes involved threatening shopkeepers with a meat cleaver during two separate incidents.
The first incident occurred on Sunday, October 22, 2023, around 7.30pm. Page entered a shop on Laceby Road and brandished a meat cleaver, intimidating the staff. As he attempted to empty the shop’s tills into his bag, a courageous staff member tackled him, disarming him in the process. Page fled the scene empty-handed, leaving behind the weapon and the bag of cash.
