Serial Telford thief jailed yet again after stealing swords, laptop and money from college
A serial shoplifter was put behind bars yet again after stealing a charity box, swords and money from a college's till.
Shane Chick, aged 36, has already been to jail three times this year for thieving, and has continued in the same criminal vein over the last three months, including using threatening behaviour against a woman in Telford.
He burgled Wrekin College in April and May, stealing swords, a laptop and a till tray containing £30.
Chick also burgled Savers in Wellington on May 6, stealing a charity box, fragrances and other stock worth a combined £3,000.
He committed four thefts from a One Stop store in Telford, lifting laundry products, coffee and meat worth a combined £160.50, and one theft from Tesco in which he stole confectionery worth £40.
Chick, of Chepstow Drive, Leegomery, Telford, pleaded guilty at Kidderminster Magistrates Court to three counts of burglary, five counts of theft and using threatening behaviour.
Magistrates jailed Chick for 18 days and ordered him to pay a total of £3,280.50 in compensation.
