The court heard Lee Bailey was already serving a suspended sentence for theft. Callum was serving a community sentence.

Sgt Scott Sarson said: “We hope knowing the brothers are now off the streets will provide some reassurance to local businesses who were affected by this repeated and persistent offending. We will not tolerate this kind of persistent criminality within our community and will continue to target those who act in this way.”
