Serial Clifton shoplifter and beggar 'made people's lives a misery'

Police said a serial shoplifter and beggar in Clifton 'made people's lives a misery'. Leigham Myers - who was responsible for a series of thefts across the area during November and December last year - has now been brought before the courts.

Members of the public complained about the 34-year-old persistently begging at the McDonald's restaurant in Clifton Lane. They also said he did this at the nearby Tesco service station.

Myers admitted to a total of 14 shop thefts and six counts of begging when he appeared at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court on January 5. In a statement after the hearing, Nottinghamshire Police said he had 'made life a misery' for shoppers and business owners.
