#Sentenced - Two males, Steven HOOTON and Lee GARDNER both from Low Edges in Sheffield are the latest of a number of people that have been arrested, interviewed and charged with retail Shop theft from local stores in Dronfield including Dronfield Sainsbury’s, CO-OP Pentland Road and CO-OP Hartington Road Dronfield amongst others.
These two males who had been identified as prolific shoplifters were remanded by Police and appeared in Court charged for multiple shop lifting offences. One male received a 26 week custodial sentence, the other 4 weeks suspended for 12 months plus a number of Court outcomes.
Dronfield SNT in conjunction with other Derbyshire, Police departments have been working hard with retail stores in Dronfield to improve reporting and recording of theft offences and to identify the most prolific shop lifters coming to the town. This work remains ongoing, and we are keen to inform residents and visitors to the town that we will prosecute and take appropriate action to support local business and retailers appropriately.
