Jailed: Prolific thief 'caused misery' by repeatedly targeting Sainsbury's store
A prolific thief who 'caused misery' by repeatedly targeting the same shop has been jailed for more than six months.
Karl Bamford continually targeted Sainsbury's on Birmingham Road, Sutton Coldfield, throughout October. The 51-year-old was said to have been "causing misery" for staff and customers.
Bamford, who is of no fixed address, was said to be indiscriminate in the items he stole, grabbing cleaning products, meat, confectionery and alcohol on 10 separate occasions.
CCTV of the thefts was forwarded to neighbourhood policing officers who recognised him.
