MEMBERS of a Hampshire family have been found guilty of conspiring to kill an elderly relative for his money.

A mother, 49, her 16-year-old daughter, son, 19, and his 17-year-old girlfriend have today been convicted of plotting to murder the 89-year-old pensioner.

A second daughter, aged 14, has been convicted of wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.

All were accused of planning a vicious attack outside the grandfather's home which he shared with his elderly wife near Winchester.

Jurors at Winchester Crown Court have heard throughout the seven-week trial how the pensioner was left battered and bruised after being hit repeatedly with "handed bricks" wrapped in plastic bags.

The pensioner survived the attack.

Sentencing has been adjourned until a later date and none of the defendants can be identified for legal reasons.
