A drug addict threatened to a punch a shop assistant, stab another with a needle and got into multiple 'tug of wars' over items she was trying to steal during a mini crime spree.
Kendra Gibson was caught on CCTV walking into Primark, in Middlesbrough, taking off her shoes and placing them under a display before picking up a new pair and trying to make off wearing them.
But magistrates' heard that two weeks in custody had helped her see clearly and step back from drugs, with the 43-year-old now professing to be "too old for all of this".
