A burglar caught piling up laptops with his partner in crime said they had broken into St Helens’ tallest building to see the Christmas lights across the town.
Steven Etchells and Luke Swift were found carrying state of the art Dyson fans down an NHS corridor in the old Pilkington site on Christmas Eve.
They were then hit with incapacitant spray after refusing to stop adding to their haul of stolen goods despite the requests of a police officer.
