flag Sean Slattery, 30, arrested in Preston after fleeing UK to Thailand, NZ, and China, faces trial for a 2024 violent burglary linked to mistaken identity.

flag Sean Slattery, 30, of Liverpool, was arrested in Preston after fleeing the UK for Thailand, New Zealand, and China following a violent February 2024 burglary. flag He was part of a masked gang that broke into a 60-year-old woman’s home in Norris Green, ransacking the property and threatening her with a machete. flag Bloodstains at the scene matched Slattery’s DNA, and a balaclava and glove were found at his residence. flag Authorities believe the raid was a case of mistaken identity, as suspects targeted the home thinking it was drug-related. flag Slattery, who had prior minor convictions but no history of serious violence, evaded capture for over a year after failing to appear for bail. flag He is now awaiting trial at Liverpool Crown Court.
