A BARNSLEY burglar has been given 45 months in prison.
Mark Clements, 42, of no fixed abode, was sentenced on Thursday at Sheffield Crown Court after pleading guilty to a burglary he committed on Oakwell Lane at 3.20pm on January 23.
He was charged with one count of burglary and arrested close to the property while carrying the stolen items.
PC Greg Brice said: “I’m glad Clements has taken responsibility for his actions and has now been rightly punished.”
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
