Two jailed for nine years for attacking man they dumped at Manvers Lake

TWO thugs who kidnapped and attacked a man before dumping him at a beauty spot have been jailed for nine years.

Nathan Stather and Darren Roberts abducted Ashley Stringer from Swinton in June last year and assaulted him before leaving him at Manvers Lake unconscious and covered in blood.

The pair were jailed at Leeds Crown Court today (Thursday) in a sentencing hearing which was relayed via video link to Sheffield Crown Court.

Stather (25), of Clover Walk, Bolton on Dearne, and Roberts (25), of Victoria Street, Kilnhurst, were both convicted of kidnapping and false imprisonment following a trial at Sheffield Crown Court.

Stather was found guilty of wounding with intent and Roberts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm.
