A 21-year-old man has been locked up after terrorising East Grinstead with violent attacks, including a brazen knifepoint robbery and a chaotic petrol station brawl.

Knife Threat at London Road Shop

On the morning of 27 July last year, Bailey Crowhurst strolled into a London Road shop, East Grinstead, acting like a customer buying ginger beer. But minutes later, he stormed back inside armed with a large knife. He threatened the shop worker and demanded tobacco and alcohol worth up to £400. The worker was left shaken and traumatised by the ordeal.
