A car thief who is drunk at the same time has killed an innocent woman after he rammed into her in an £80,000 stolen Land Rover Defender during hot police chase.
Police reports that Marcin Jablonski, 44, was speeding four times the drink-drive limit when he drove the car through a field of 6ft-high corn in attempt to evade police in two marked cars and a helicopter.
Footage showed Jablonski driving in circles through the corn crop to buy his escape – causing £6,000 of damage – before rejoining the A143 single carriageway near Earsham.
The steering was badly damaged by the bumpy field and, when he rejoined the road, he lost control and smashed into an oncoming Nissan Juke which led to the driver’s death.
Aisatou Mballow Baldeh, 28, suffered massive injuries as her car was flipped onto its roof and she was confirmed dead at the scene. Meanwhile, Jablonski and his son Thomas Urbaniak, 26, who was in the passenger seat, escaped serious injury.
Court Ruling
Jablonski was jailed for 11 years yesterday after he pleaded guilty to causing death by dangerous driving, having no insurance, causing death while a disqualified driver, aggravated vehicle taking and criminal damage.
And his son, Urbaniak received a two-year jail term after he admitted to aggravated vehicle taking, burglary and being in a vehicle driven by someone causing death by dangerous driving.
