Jason Huxtable appears in court over double fatal crash at Loxhore Cross

A man accused of causing the death of two of his friends in a car crash at Loxhore Cross in June last year has appeared in court.

Huxtable, who wore a dark suit, blue shirt and striped tie, stood emotionless in the dock as his case was committed to the crown court.
