Man jailed for 12 months after theft from Harrogate shop
A man has been jailed for a year after being found guilty of theft from a shop in Harrogate town centre.
Jason Mark Johnson, 24, of no fixed address, was charged with trespassing at VPZ vape shop on Beulah Street and stealing property worth £685 on November 11 last year.
He denied the charge but was found guilty at Harrogate Magistrates Court last week and sentenced to 12 months in prison.
Court documents said Johnson was given a custodial sentence because of the seriousness of the crime and also because the offence was aggravated by his previous record of offending.
He was also ordered to pay £685 compensation.
