Three brothers jailed after 21-year-old murdered following car crash 'dispute'
Three brothers from Normacot have been jailed today after a 21-year-old man was senselessly killed following a petty dispute over a car crash. Tayyab Hussain, 27, Ezaan Hussain, 22, and Tuheed Hussain, 24, were sentenced at Loughborough Crown Court. The victim - Thalepo Jali, of Stafford - was driving his girlfriend's Volkswagen T-Roc on July 20 last year, when he became involved in a collision with a Honda Civic, driven by Tuheed Hussain. The following day, on July 21, Tuheed and Ezaan vandalised Jali's car, smashing up the windows. Later that evening, CCTV captured Jali running into an alleyway in Normacot, which ran between Hamilton Road and Buccleuch Road, at 11.47pm. Four seconds later, Tayyab and Ezaan Hussain jumped out of a car driven by Tuheed and chased Jali into the alleyway.

Tayyab and Ezaan then ditched the scene, before being picked up by Tuheed on Hamilton Road. Jali was discovered lying in the alley shortly afterwards at 12.30am on Sunday, July 22. Sadly there was nothing paramedics could do, and he died on the scene at around 1.10am. Attackers Tayyab and Ezaan Hussain pleaded guilty to murder on July 7 and July 9, 2025 respectively. Driver Tuheed Hussain was found guilty of manslaughter by a jury on Monday (August 4). Tayyab was sentenced to 21 years and 351 days' imprisonment, Ezaan was jailed for 20 years and 353 days and Tuheed was sentenced to 11 years' imprisonment. Jali's heart-broken family have shared their grief in a statement shared with Staffordshire Police. They said: "We love and miss Thapelo and his death has left an unmeasurable void in the lives of us who love him so dearly. "When the officers came to tell us about Thapelo's death, their words changed our lives forever. That morning, little did we know that our lives were now changed, beyond anything that we could ever imagine. 'The stark reality of Thapelo's death was something that quickly absorbed our family, devastating us completely, as the days, weeks and months have passed. 'One young life was taken in the most tragic and cruel set of circumstances, yet many lives have been ruined through the ripples of devastation caused by these dreadful events. 'I hope that in some small way, my words help to discourage the epidemic of knife crime that has taken my son from his family at such a young age. I want for no other family to have to experience the level of pain that we have, and continue, to endure.' Detective Superintendent Cheryl Hannan said: 'Our thoughts remain with Thapelo's family and friends. 'This was a brutal and calculated attack. This highlights the tragic consequences of carrying a knife and conflict between groups.' Get all the latest news from court here

Police caught him after one burglary - it was only the beginning
A man who was identified following the burglary of a Manchester city centre business was later linked to another 28 offences. Forensic investigators were able to link Iain Dickinson, from Moss Side, to a burglary on Quay Street thanks to evidence recovered at the scene. Greater Manchester Police says the incident, which took place on June 1, came amid a spike in burglaries at business premises across the city in May and June this year.

Sign up to the MEN Court newsletter here Following further investigative work, and admissions by Dickinson, he was ultimately charged with seven counts of burglary and one count of criminal damage. But that was not the full extent of his offending - as a further 21 burglary offences were taken into consideration, bringing the total number of offences to 29. GMP says Dickinson is responsible for more than £18,000-worth of stolen goods and damages. He was remanded in custody after being charged and has since been recalled to prison. Dickinson, of Maine Road, was sentenced to 44 months in prison at Manchester Crown Court. He was also handed an eight-year Criminal Behaviour Order, effective from August 6, which puts restrictions on his movements and will be supervised. Detective Inspector Natalie McDonald, of the City of Manchester neighbourhood crime team, said: "This result is a testament to the dedication and professionalism of our officers and staff across multiple teams, who are committed to tackling burglary offending. "Our work allowed us to uncover Dickinson as a persistent offender whose actions have caused significant disruption and distress to local businesses and communities. "By securing this conviction, and uncovering a total of 29 offences, we've not only brought justice to those affected but also prevented further harm. Furthermore, the Criminal Behaviour Order will help us manage his movements and reduce the risk of reoffending.

Their efforts have made a real difference in keeping Greater Manchester safer." A GMP spokesperson added: "The successful outcome was the result of large and collaborative effort from multiple GMP teams, including the City of Manchester Central Neighbourhood Crime Team, CSI, Manchester Council ASBAT team as well as Longsight and the City Centre Neighbourhood Beat Officers."
