A THIEF who took almost £1,500-worth of Blu-Ray discs and two litter bins from Asda admitted two house break-ins.

Appearing before Swindon Magistrates’ Court, Graham Kidd, 35, of Westwood Road, pleaded guilty to shoplifting and two counts of burglary.

He stole clothing, jewellery from a house on Jupiter Close, Blunsdon, on November 19, and a cash safe from a house on Severn Avenue in Pinehurst on the same day.

On November 11, he was caught on CCTV stealing scores of pricey Blu-Ray DVDs, two bins and sweets - together worth £1,455 - from the Orbital retail park Asda. Wiltshire Police issued a witness appeal earlier this week in relation to that theft.

He was remanded in custody to appear before Swindon Crown Court on December 13 for sentence.
