A 26-year-old man has appeared in court accused of being involved in a robbery at the home of Olympic cyclist Mark Cavendish.
Jo Jobson, 26, of no fixed address, was at Chelmsford Magistrates' Court on Tuesday accused of two counts of robbery on November 27 2021.
Cavendish and his wife Peta were asleep at their home in Ongar, Essex, when intruders broke in and stole items including two high-value watches and a Louis Vuitton suitcase at knifepoint.
Jobson is also accused of two counts of attempted grievous bodily harm in relation to a separate incident in July last year.
He was remanded in custody to next appear at Chelmsford Crown Court on July 4, Essex Police said.
Two men have already been jailed for the Cavendish robbery, and Essex Police want to speak to a fourth suspect, George Goddard, who is from Loughton but has connections across east London.
