Andy Carroll relives ordeal of gunpoint robbery bid in court

Carroll's frantic 999 call was played to a jury.

West Ham striker Andy Carroll has told a jury of his terror as a gun-wielding motorbike rider tried to rob him of his £22,000 wristwatch as he drove his green Jeep Wrangler back from training.

The 6ft 4in footballer was returning home from his club's training ground when he was chased by two motorcycles, Basildon Crown Court heard.
