A serial burglar and ‘menace’ to the city centre left numerous small businesses out of pocket after carrying out a spree in the Arndale. Callum Fleming, 25, repeatedly targeted shops, cafe’s and salons throughout the city centre shopping mall.
He was caught on CCTV jumping over entrances before breaking into tills and cupboards in order to steal cash and other valuables. In one burglary he stole a personal laptop, which the manager couldn’t afford to replace, Manchester Crown Court heard.
A total of eight stores were affected, all of which have been left having to deal with the financial consequences.
