Two men broke into a city centre Greggs and assaulted police officers in their failed escape bid, a court has heard.
Neal Jackson, 42, of Arncliffe Road, Halewood and Isaiah Gregory, 38, of no fixed abode, appeared at Liverpool Crown Court on Monday after the pair burgled a city centre Greggs. Jackson previously pleaded guilty to burglary with intent to steal, going equipped to steal with a crowbar, and two counts of assaulting an emergency worker.
He was also charged with one count of burglary, for a further offence which took place in January this year at Holland and Barrett while he was released on bail. Gregory pleaded guilty to one count of burglary and one count of going equipped to steal with a de-tagging device.
