Girls who kidnapped toddler from store face sentence

Two girls aged 13 and 14 who used sweets to kidnap a toddler from a Primark store where her mother was shopping will be sentenced at a crown court.

The girls appeared at a youth court hearing in North Tyneside.

District Judge Roger Elsey said they would need over 12 months of intensive work with social services to reduce their risk of re-offending.
