A NORTHWICH man stole cash and Christmas presents from his friend of three years after she offered him a place to stay for the night.
Luke Vincent Weedall, 32, of Nicholas Avenue in Rudheath, said he was ‘dreadfully sorry’ for what he had done, after magistrates handed him a suspended sentence.
He was appearing at Chester Magistrates Court last Friday after pleading guilty at another hearing in relation to the incident in the early hours of December 21 last year.
Luke Unsworth, prosecuting, told the bench it had been around 9pm on December 20 when Weedall knocked on the door of his friend, who let him in as he appeared drunk and unsteady on his feet.
