THE jury in the trial of a man accused of transporting his cousins to Grimsby's mosque to carry out a firebomb attack, has been shown CCTV footage of the weapons being made. Daniel Cressey, 24, of New Holland, is accused of making a 40-mile round trip to drive the other men to the mosque on Weelsby Road on May 26. He denies aiding and abetting Stuart Harness and Gavin Humphries. The footage, which has been shown to jurors this morning, and is accepted by the defence, shows Harness and Humphries, who have both pleaded guilty to arson reckless as to whether life was endangered, making bombs outside Harness' Dixon Avenue home. Cressey then arrives in a silver Saab and the three are seen leaving in the vehicle. Further footage shows the Saab arriving at the mosque, and Harness and Humphries lighting, and then throwing the firebombs over the boundary. Prosecuting, Jeremy Evans, also told Grimsby Crown Court that phone calls were exchanged between Cressey and other two on the day of the attack, and two days later on May 28. He said: "It smacks of panic, they knew exactly what had taken place. "Another strand of evidence that flies in the of what the defendant told police." The trial continues.
