2. Mollie: Hello and welcome to Coventry crackdown.
Eve:Today we have a one off special about theWestgate
robbery.
Introduction…
3. Jamie: TobyWestgate is a 26 year old man who was raised in the Earlsdon area of Coventry.
Toby comes from a loving family, but at the age of 18 he fell into the wrong crowd and picked
up a bad habit for drugs.Westgate first came to the attention ofWest Midlands Police just
three months after his 185) birthday when he was found in the possession of the class C drug
marijuana. Little did bothWestgate's family and the police know this was only the beginning of
his criminal behaviour.
On November the 7th of this year,Westgate committed his most violent crime to date. 20 year
old Maisy Roberts also from Coventry was his victim. He targeted Roberts after spotting her at
her place of work just three weeks prior to the attack.
Westgate grew an obsession for Roberts which ultimately led to his attack and theft of her car.
The reason behindWestgate's obsession is the uncanny resemblance between Roberts and his
former partner.
4. EyeWitnessAccount…
Mollie:This is an eyewitness account of the attack from Roberts'
co worker who wishes to remain anonymous.
Eve: Some viewers may find this distressing.
5. EyeWitnessAccount…
Halena: It was just a normal day at work, we were tired and just
wanted to go home. I left shortly after Maisy and what I saw was
horrifying. I saw the attacker, he was wearing dark clothes he
was really tall, it looked like a male. I saw him attacking Maisy
and then he just drove off in her car. *upset* I'm sorry. Maisy is
my best friend. All I want is justice for her.
7. PC Jones…
