A man has been jailed for stealing a minibus after taking cocaine, Valium and drinking alcohol before driving the wrong way down a dual carriageway. Darragh O'Grady, from Dublin, arrived by ferry in Holyhead where he stole a woman's phone and her bank cards that he used to spend between £100 and £200. The 31-year-old then stole the minibus belonging to a taxi firm, which he drove the wrong way down the A55 on Anglesey, before hitting a cyclist and knocking him unconscious. The judge labelled his actions as "completely stupid and ridiculous", adding that it was only "sheer luck" that prevented him or someone else being killed as he sentenced O'Grady to three years in prison.
