Cornwall driver who threw a parking ticket at a warden's face is ordered to pay £2,270 for LITTERING
Stephen Lang, 58, crumples a parking notice on body-worn camera at Exchequer Quay car park in Penryn — he was convicted in his absence and ordered to pay £2,270, including £1,920.90 in costs.
Stephen Lang, 58, of Camborne, was caught on body-worn camera and CCTV crumpling the notice and hurling it towards a female enforcement officer at Exchequer Quay car park in Penryn. He had parked outside a marked bay in November 2025. Lang then ignored a £250 fixed penalty despite reminders. Truro Magistrates' Court convicted him in his absence on October 14, piling on £1,920.90 in costs.
The officer picked the ticket up and put it back, only for Lang to rip it off again.
Cllr Thalia Marrington: 'We will not tolerate any abuse towards our officers.'
A £100 victim surcharge was added on top of the £250 fine.
