A woman who subjected a man to racist abuse and months later broke into a hospital stole a small Christmas tree and a knife, a court has heard.
Dominika Coyne, of no fixed abode but formerly of Warrington, appeared at Liverpool Crown Court via video link on Tuesday. Coyne previously pleaded guilty to one count of racially aggravated harassment, one count of burglary in a non-dwelling and possession of a bladed article.
David Watson, prosecuting, outlined that on October 14 last year, Egerton Grizzle worked as a volunteer porter at a hostel, James Lee House in Warrington. He was on duty monitoring CCTV at 1am when he saw Coyne open the fire exit five times, causing the alarm to activate each time.
