Drug-driver jailed for killing baby in Worcestershire crash

A drug-driver who reached speeds of 90mph has been jailed for 14 years for the death of a three-week-old baby in a crash.

Craig Nunn hit a car carrying Harley Thomas Wilkinson and his parents on the A451 between Kidderminster and Stourport-on-Severn in Worcestershire on 26 October.

The infant suffered a severe traumatic brain injury and died at the scene, and his father Jake Wilkinson suffered spinal fractures.

Nunn, 40, who also ran through a red light, admitted causing death by dangerous driving, causing serious injury by dangerous driving and drug driving.

Harley’s mother, Imogen Bradley, was driving home with her partner Mr Wilkinson after picking their son up from her sister’s home at the time of the fatal crash.

Prosecutor Cathlyn Orchard said Mr Wilkinson, having been “frustrated” trying to get Harley into his car seat, had him on his lap in the back seat for what should have been a short trip home.

Ms Bradley told the court her world had been “ripped apart” by the loss of her “miracle” son.

She said: “The loss is unbearable. I am broken and don’t know if I will ever feel whole again.”
