Bournemouth star Jordon Ibe 'crashed his Bentley 4x4 into a coffee shop'

Premier League star Jordon Ibe crashed his £130,000 Bentley 4x4 into a coffee shop, a court heard today.

The Bournemouth midfielder, 23, is accused of driving off after ploughing into The Pantry on Plaistow Lane in Bromley, south London, in the early hours of July 30.

Ibe, who joined Bournemouth for a club record £15m from Liverpool in 2016, denied failing to stop at the scene of an accident.

The player, who earns £38,000 a week, did not enter a plea to a second charge of driving without due care and attention.

The player, who earns £38,000 a week, appeared at Bromley Magistrates' Court wearing two silver and gold chains, and a navy blue v-neck jumper with a bumble bee logo on the left breast.

George Crickelli, prosecuting, said: 'The defendant was driving a white Bentley at 4:50am.

'The defendant was involved with a collision where his vehicle has left the road and collided with a parked car and crashed into the shop in front.

'He stayed there for a while before leaving the scene.

'The Crown say that in respect of failing to stop the defendant's actions did not meet the required behaviour for an accident scene.

'He caused minor damage but had not left any details in hitting the shop, but in hitting the shop the front had to be removed from its foundations, he actually left part of the car in this shop.

'He stated that he waited ten minutes before leaving, but members of the public called the police.

'Police arrived within four minutes, he told police that he returned that day, however it was over ten hours later.

'The owner of the Pantry shop that is actually damaged by the collision says the issue in dispute is she says in her statement says that she was in effect at the shop at midday the next day and no one had left a note with details.

Jonathan Morrisey, defending, said: 'Mr Ibe continues to contend that he waited for a while at the scene and nobody arrived at the scene to exchange details, he will continue to deny that allegation.'

Ibe, of Haven Road, Poole, Dorset, denied failing to stop at the scene of an accident.

He did not enter a plea to a second charge of driving without due care and attention.

Ibe now faces trial at Bexley Magistrates' Court on February 10.
