A teenage entrepreneur who scooped a £80,000 investment on Dragons' Den has been arrested on suspicion of burgling his mother's house.

Jordan Daykin, 19, became the youngest person to ever go into business with the Dragons when Deborah Meaden pledged the money in return for a 25 per cent stake in his business.

But he has now been arrested after his mother claimed he ransacked her house in Westbury and stole a number of valuables including, Swarovski crystals, four televisions and jewellery worth £4,000.

She claims to have lost all the furniture from two bedrooms, around 100 DVDs and perfume worth nearly £300. 

A spokesman for Jordan said that he had permission from his mother to enter the house and that he was simply helping his brother leave home after a row. He added that the belongings they took belonged to them. 

Maria Daykin, 45, said she was "disgusted" by her son's alleged actions.

She said: "I had to phone the police because it is a violation of my privacy. When I got home I found my house had just been completely trashed, every bit of furniture, the TVs off the wall, everything."

Ms Daykin, from Westbury, said the incident happened on Thursday, October 9, and that her son was arrested that evening by Wiltshire Police.

Jordan was arrested and detain overnight being released on bail after questioning.

Last week Jordan was short-listed as Young Entrepreneur of the Year in the GB Entrepreneur Awards.

Dragon Deborah Meaden invested £80,000 in his company Grip It Fixings, which offers a universal fixing for plasterboard, in August.

The investment is to help Jordan with the costs of new machinery, stock increase and a deposit for a warehouse in Melksham.

Jordan left school at the age of 13 and his first business was a website called RS2Services, inspired by his love of RuneScape, an online fantasy role-playing game.

He later founded nationwide tutoring agency Tutor Magnet, which currently has a database of over 400 tutors and generates a turnover of £2,000 a month.

Jordan came up with the idea for Grip It Fixings in 2008 while putting up curtain rails with his then 74-year-old grandfather Stan.

Wiltshire Police said: "We can confirm a man aged 19 was arrested on October 9 at approximately 7pm on suspicion of burglary and was taken to Melksham Police Station.

"He has been bailed pending further enquiries."
