The Flying Horse owners van torched

Date published: 12 July 2013


Ben Boothman, owner of the Flying Horse, woke up on Tuesday 9 July to find that his Volkswagen Transporter van had been torched.

The van was outside his house at the time, Ben admitted he was slightly concerned: “The worst thing was the fact it happened outside my house, it’s very worrying when things like this happen.

“However, the van being destroyed is more of an inconvenience as I don’t use it that often. I can always get another one.”
