A serial burglar has been banished from Nottingham city centre at night after his summertime crime wave hit a popular pub, KFC and units at Sneinton Market. Adrian Perry, 53, was behind 10 burglaries, an attempted burglary and a theft, Nottingham Crown Court heard on Wednesday, March 30.
Homeless and addicted to drugs, Perry struck at the Dragon pub, on Long Row, Nottingham, on August 12, 2021. The pub owner saw Perry, wearing a high visibility vest, climb on to his roof and try to open a bedroom window.
The owner was using a different bedroom after the same defendant burgled the pub in December 2018. After Perry was unable to open the bedroom window, he used a brick to smash another window and he grabbed £100 from the till.
