A man was arrested after breaching his curfew by going to his front door to collect his shopping.
The curfew imposed on 59-year-old Michael Jones meant that he was
confined to his first-floor flat between 5pm and 7am.
When he went downstairs to answer the doorbell when his shopping was
delivered his electronic tag recorded him as “absent” for 15 minutes.
On Tuesday at Prestatyn magistrates’ court, Jones, of Rhyl in north east Wales, pleaded guilty to breaching the condition, imposed as a bail condition while he awaits trial on other charges in January.
The Bench allowed the bail to continue, with the area extended to cover the whole of the property, which is divided into four flats. But chairman Alun Williams told Jones: “If you step outside the door you are in trouble.”
