Man jailed for fuel theft
In May 2009 a Skelmersdale man was jailed for 11 months for the theft of hundreds of litres of fuel from HGV’s at a Burscough haulage firm
Fortunately for the haulage firm an employee had seen Mark Livesley and an accomplice running away from the scene of the crime and alerted his boss. Later that day police found barrels in a field which contained over 300 litres of fuel , syphoned from their lorries.
Livesley, 35, admitted theft of diesel valued at £930 from Grahams Haulage between June 16 and 17 last year.
