Selection box thief ‘has no respect for the system’

A man who was caught leaving a shop in Killarney, Co Kerry, with five Cadbury’s selection boxes has been jailed.

The judge said he might be some way lenient if the theft was for hunger but this was for chocolate.

Judge James O’Connor also said he was taking into account the number of previous convictions notched up by the man who had no respect for the system.
