Persistent Workington offender jailed for burglary after earlier reprieve

Summarised from Cumberland News's report · Updated 5 Nov, 23:09 · Archive

Alan Kendrick, 49, was jailed for ten months after burgling the Waverley Hotel in Workington, days after being spared custody.

Alan Kendrick, 49, of Bowness Court, Moorclose, Workington, was sentenced at Workington Magistrates' Court after admitting burglary. On 15 October, he trespassed behind the bar at the Waverley Hotel in Gordon Street and stole a bottle of port. The sentencing came the same day Kendrick appeared in court for earlier offences—shop thefts from Morrisons stores and Sports Direct, and threatening behaviour against a security guard—for which he had been spared custody.

A district judge imposed a total of ten months custody, ruling that immediate imprisonment was appropriate. Kendrick was serving a suspended eight-month jail term for the earlier offences and had repeatedly flouted a criminal behaviour order designed to keep him out of shops in Workington. His defence lawyer had previously highlighted work Kendrick was doing with Probation staff.
