A WOMAN has admitted killing a disabled man after stealing his mobility scooter in a Tesco car park before going on a joy ride.
Kimberley Ann Hawkins, 41, has pleaded guilty at Bristol Crown Court to the manslaughter of Neil Shadwick, 63, in Stroud, Gloucestershire, in January last year.
Mr Shadwick was found unresponsive by a staff member at the store on Stratford Road, Stroud, at around 6am.
The temperature at the time was minus four degrees.
Mr Shadwick, who had Parkinsons, suffered a stroke shortly before he died at Gloucestershire Royal Hospital.

The scooter, which was Mr Shadwick's transport, was found abandoned nearby later that same day.
Chilling CCTV obtained by The Sun at the time is believed to show Mr Shadwick's final moments.
The footage shows a woman driving up to the Tesco Express around 2.20am.
The man wearing a blue jacket, red top, and black tracksuit trousers is seen going to a cashpoint while the woman leans against a wall.
The woman, wearing a long grey green jacket and hat, appears agitated and impatient.
The man gets then back onto the scooter while the woman begins to walk off before he ushers her back.
She gets on the scooter again and they both drive off.
