A 27-year old man whose early morning crime spree included robbing a Belfast resident at knifepoint and hijacking a HGV lorry was jailed on Monday
.
At 3.34am on that date, a resident at University Road was woken from his sleep which prompted him to exit his bedroom. The van driver then stopped the vehicle at Donegall Square South and was told to get money from an ATM machine, but he managed to flee and raise the alarm. Police were able to track the phone stolen from the first driver to a house at Milford Street and Goodwin was arrested just after 7am.
The Belfast Recorder told Goodwin the van driver hijacked at knifepoint "feared for his own safety throughout the ordeal ... he was fearful that you were going to hurt him or kill him and leave his two children without a Dad." Speaking following the sentencing, Investigating Officer, Detective Sergeant McVeagh said: "Goodwin was arrested and charged after his involvement in eight separate incidents entailed a number of offences including aggravated burglary, hijacking, robbery and assault on police.
