A man who broke into the home of a young family and demanded to know where they kept their cash has been jailed. Steven Fitton, 39, of Willington Road, Knowle, has been sentenced to two years and four months in prison.
He was also handed an additional two weeks’ imprisonment for breaching a court order and theft during his sentencing on Wednesday (December 21). Fitton had previously pleaded guilty to one count of dwelling burglary at Bristol Magistrates’ Court in October.
The court heard how Fitton kicked down the front door of a house in Torrington Avenue at around 10pm on October 11. The occupants of the address, including a young child, were asleep inside.
