    City stars fined for window tints


    Five Manchester City stars were fined by police who spotted their vehicles' tinted windows were too dark as they arrived at training.Shay Given, Kolo Toure, Shaun Wright-Phillips, Patrick Vieira and Stephen Ireland were all given £30 fixed penalty notices on Wednesday.

    They were caught out by police and the Vehicle Operator Services Agency (VOSA) at the Carrington complex car park.

    Each player was told to wind down the offending window until it was fixed.

    But it is believed club officials arranged for a company to come and correct the tints during training.

    Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said the fines were handed out on Wednesday morning.

    "An officer from GMP's Road Policing Unit, working with representatives from VOSA, stopped a number of cars on Carrington Lane, Trafford," a spokesman said.

    "The cars were stopped and found to have illegally tinted windows.


    "The drivers were issued with fixed penalty notices and prohibition notices."This article is from the BBC News website. ? British Broadcasting Corporation, The BBC is not responsible for the content of external internet sites.
