A shop worker began sleepwalking after being held at knifepoint by a customer.
Gary Simpson's victim says her sleepwalking got so bad that she once woke up her daughter in the middle of the night and even made her breakfast while still fast asleep. It happened only hours after Simpson targeted another man in a brutal theft.
Liverpool Crown Court heard this week that the man had used an ATM at the Co-op on Orford Lane, Warrington, to withdraw £200 at around 10am on August 27. He said he "needed the money to have his dog put to sleep".
