A 'silly' vandal who was caught keying a £100,000 Aston Martin is today facing jail after admitting criminal damage. Gary Brissett, 48, was pushing his baby in a pram when he inexplicably used a bunch of keys to scratch nearly £8,000 of damage into the pricey motor in a Tesco car park, a court heard. Owner Oliver Hall returned moments and discovered the damage along the full length of the passenger side of his car. The footage shows Brissett stoping in front of the V8 Vanquish sports car before rummaging around in his pockets. After he finds his keys, Brissett pulls the cover down on the baby's pushchair and slowly approaches the vehicle. With the keys in his left hand, Brissett, who has a 13-month-old baby, grimaces as he drags them down the complete side of the car, ruining the Aston's paint job. Brissett appeared at Thames Magistrates' Court and pleaded guilty to causing £7,741. 28 damage to the near side of Mr Hall's Aston Martin Vanquish on 19 June. Chair of the bench Carol Brabender told him: "You are a single father with a 13-month-old little baby and at that age they start to copy you. Magistrates adjourned sentencing until 19 September, but warned Bassett he could face jail. Source: www.mirror.co.uk
