Killer drink driver David Lee Stewart jailed for three and a half years for killing student Enda Dolan

THE sentence handed down to a drunk driver who killed Tyrone teenager Enda Dolan is to be referred to the Appeal Court.

Public prosecutors believe the sentence imposed at Belfast Crown Court by Judge Gordon Kerr QC wass too lenient.

The 18-year-old died when he was knocked down on the Malone Road, Belfast, in 2014.

David Lee Stewart, 31, of Gray’s Park Avenue, Belfast was sentenced to three and a half years in prison and three and a half years on licence.

But the director of public prosecutions said he would refer the sentence.

Barra McGrory QC said this was on the grounds that it was “unduly lenient”.

At his trial, the court heard Stewart had taken 13 drinks before he drove that night.

He had taken six pints of beer and four Jagerbombs, a mix of a spirit and an energy drink.

Traces of drugs, including cocaine, were also found in his system.

After he hit Enda Dolan, he carried on driving with the teenager on the roof of his van for about 800 yards before he stopped.
