Live: 'Husky' Petch refusing to leave Dormanstown premises as bailiffs wait outside


Bailiffs have turned up at the doors of a council-owned building where Dormanstown pensioner John 'Husky' Petch has housed his vast collection of old farm machinery.


John Petch has been in dispute with Redcar and Cleveland Council over the storage of his possessions.


This morning, bailiffs called at the Westfield Buildings, just off The Green, where 'Husky' has stored his collections for the last 15 years.


Members of the housing advice and information team have spoken to Mr Petch about accommodation and securing his belongings, and offered legal advice.


But he told them: “I’m staying here and do not want any help off you people.”


He remains inside the buildings, as bailiffs and police look on from outside.
