Update: Gumball "Hit & Run" Driver Arrested Again As He Tried To Flee FYROM In Private Jet!

Remember the British Gumball Rally 3000 driver that was arrested in FYROM (Former Republic of Macedonia) for a “hit & run” incident that caused the death of Vladimir Cepuljoski, 67 and his wife Margarita (she died on Friday, May 4)? Well Nick Morley, 30, seems to have created a habit for running away as just hours after a judge granted him bail, he was arrested at Skopje Airport trying to flee the Balkan country in a private jet! -Continued after the jump

FYROM’s Interior Ministry spokesman Ivo Kotevski told the The Sunday Telegraph: "The court revoked its original decision and granted Mr Nick Morley bail late yesterday. He was even given his passport back as a sign of good will. But within hours, Mr Morley ordered a private jet to pick him up from Skopje. While trying to board at 10pm on Friday, Mr Morley was recognised by the border officer. It is astonishing that Mr Morley attempted to leave the country. He has got competent legal representation and the authorities have made sure his rights were guaranteed."

Run, Nick Morley, run…

This guy is a real bastard. He kills 2 poor people and now he can't face the real world, the justice. For me he must take a long long trip in jail. He always loved the Gumball3000 but now I think I'm done. Max Cooper is just a jerk. RIP for these poor people and I would like to applause the TEAM POLIZEI for their attitute.

I think this is the end of the gumball3000. To many money in this race and I think the real spirit in dead. PROFIT, PROFIT, PROFIT... the race was already dead since 2005, too many sponsors etc...

that guy should be thrown in jail for murder.

Killing 2 people then showing utter comtempt and lack of remorse by just running out of the country, lets hope he gets put with the sex offenders in prison.
