A TRANENT thief was caught stealing goods from the town’s Asda supermarket.
William Peacock took a quantity of razorblades from the store on three separate occasions on December 28 and 29 last year.
He also breached a court order on two occasions by being at the store between 7pm and 7am after being told he had to stay at his home on Caesar Way during those hours.
The 34-year-old pleaded guilty when he appeared from custody at the court last Tuesday. Sheriff Daniel Kelly issued Peacock with a fine of £320 to cover all offences.
