A man has pleaded guilty to a charge of 'attempted theft of medical supplies’ on March 27.

He had originally been charged with theft of 'a rubber band, epi pen, cannulas and a stethoscope belonging to the Northern Health Trust'.

Craig John Adair (36), Doagh Road, Newtownabbey, also admitted being in possession of diazepam.

District Judge Nigel Broderick asked was it a "breach of trust" case and was told no.

At Antrim Magistrates Court, sitting in Ballymena, the case was adjourned to June 9, for a pre-sentence report.
