A drink driver has admitted killing a couple after ploughing into them as they walked home from a carnival.

Ryan Morrish, 27, crashed his Audi S4 into Calvin Trevena and Ann Varran as they left St Agnes Carnival on foot.

He then tried to cover up his crimes by reporting the car stolen, hiding his keys and then washing his clothes after the incident in Cornwall last August.


Morrish, of Redruth, appeared in Truro Crown Court today where he admitted two charges of causing death by careless driving whilst over the drink drive limit, and one count of perverting the course of justice.

He will be sentenced at a later date but was told by judge Mr Justice Dingemans that a custodial sentence was "inevitable".
