On viewing the defendant’s previous convictions District Judge, Mr Mervyn Bates, said it had been a little while since Chambers had indulged in this sort of behaviour.
But given the circumstances and the amount involved he decided to adjourn the matter to obtain a pre-sentence report.
He remanded Chambers on his own bail of £250, with the condition that he had to stay out of Tescos in Lurgan, so that a report could be prepared.
