A man was caught on CCTV as he tried to break into his neighbour’s home in Shotts.
Paul O’Neill was identified by the two-tone jumper he was wearing, Hamilton Sheriff Court heard last week.
O’Neill, 40, denied attempted housebreaking in Inverkip Drive on May 13 last year, but a jury found him guilty. He was cleared of stealing a £50 spade from the same location.
