Teens in court over drink-drive crash

A Peel teenager accused of assaulting police officers and a string of motoring offences will appear before a juvenile court in June.

The child, who can't be named for legal reasons, is accused of stealing a car, drink-driving with no licence or insurance, failing to stop after a crash and failing to report it on April 22.

19 year old Matthew Darius Brown of Carmane Close in Peel admitted taking a vehicle without consent in the same incident when he appeared before magistrates this week.

Brown was bailed while reports are prepared - he'll be sentenced on June 19.
