Extinction Rebellion protests
A teenage climate protester who camped at the top of a 100ft crane for two nights has been ordered to pay £45 in compensation for cutting a chain to access the structure.
Cycle courier Alex Sidney, 18, climbed the crane in Norwich early on November 7 last year and descended on November 9.
At Norwich Magistrates’ Court on Monday, he admitted to the criminal damage of a chain belonging to Carter Construction which he cut using a disc cutter in order to access the crane on November 7.
Prosecutor Paul Roach said nobody from the company had come to court to be a witness and that no evidence was offered in respect of three further charges, which were then dismissed by the district judge.
