　　A photo showed an Audi TT with a broken windscreen on a road in the town and it is thought this was the same one Binton owned at one point.

　　照片显示，一辆停放在路边的奥迪TT的挡风玻璃被砸碎。据称这就是布林顿的那辆。

　　A clip had apparently shown him loading up the boot of a similar vehicle in a car park on the same day he was begging with pet dog Hazel.

　　在此之前，视频片段显示，布林顿在停车场往一辆车的后备箱装东西，这辆车和图中的奥迪TT很相似。也是在当天，有人看见他带着自己的宠物狗“黑兹尔”在街上乞讨。

　　But police said they believed Brinton, who is a heroin³ addict⁴ with mental health issues, had lost the car and any money he had and was now back on the streets.

　　但警方表示，相信布林顿确已弄丢了自己的车和全部的钱，因而不得不回到街上乞讨。布林顿吸食海洛因成瘾，而且有精神问题。

　　Newquay’s top cop, inspector⁵ Dave Meredith added threats had been directed at Brinton, but none were deemed to present an immediate⁶ risk to his safety.

　　纽基镇警长兼督察员戴夫·梅雷迪思补充道，虽然有人威胁布林顿，但他们认为现在还没有人会即刻影响到他的人身安全。

　　‘He had a few threats, with people making stupid comments on social media,’ he said.

　　他说：“林顿的确受到了威胁，有人在社交媒体上写了很多愚蠢的评论。”

　　‘We’ve told him “you need to be careful because of the video on Facebook; there’s lots of ill-feeling and animosity because of it."“我们已经转告布林顿，‘因为脸书视频的缘故，你要小心些；很多人对你感到不满，颇有敌意。’”
