Pet shop thief jailed
A woman received a 21-day prison sentence after admitting stealing from a pet shop.
Forty-one-year-old Michelle Parkyn appeared before Truro Magistrates’ Court, charged with two counts of theft from The Pet Centre in Newquay.
Parkyn, of Grovenor Avenue, Newquay, visited the store in June last year and stole goods of an unknown value. She returned the next day and this time took goods worth £200.
After changing an initial plea of not guilty, Parkyn admitted to the offences and was handed a 21-day prison sentence. She was also given a Criminal Behaviour Order lasting two years, and ordered to pay costs of £200.
