AN Enham Alamein meat thief has been jailed for two months after committing four thefts while serving a suspended sentence.
Alex Sartain, whose address is care of an address on MacCallum Road, admitted to stealing a quantity of clothing from TK Maxx during an incident earlier this month when he appeared in Basingstoke Magistrates' Court recently.
The 29-year-old also pleaded guilty to stealing meat from Co-op and Marks and Spencer last week while still serving a suspended sentence.
An eight week prison sentence, suspended for two years, was imposed on Sartain last October for assaulting another man in Andover and for driving a vehicle along Shepherds Spring Lane while under the influence of drugs.
Sartain was sentenced to eight weeks in prison and ordered to pay a £100 victim surcharge.
