Ex Spalding United chairman Chris Toynton faces speeding charge in court
A Spalding resident on trial in a £4 million fraud case has had a speeding matter adjourned.
Christopher Toynton (73) is charged with exceeding the 50mph limit on the A47 between Lingwood and Burlingham in Norfolk.
He is said to have been driving an Audi A7 during the offence on June 8, 2021.
Toynton had been scheduled to appear before Boston Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday but magistrates heard that a trial he is involved in at Lincoln Crown Court could run until the end of May. He denies the charges in the fraud trial.
The speeding case was adjourned to June 2.
