Man fined £872 for breaching covid lockdown rules in Harrogate
A man has been fined for breaching coronavirus regulations in Harrogate during the third national lockdown two years ago.
Thomas Boston, 33, initially denied a charge of having two or more people in a property on Coppice Drive, Harrogate, on the evening of February 27, 2021.
England was placed into a third lockdown on January 5, 2021.
Police charged Boston with having six people in his flat after responding to reports of breaches of the coronavirus regulations.
At a hearing at Harrogate Magistrates Court yesterday, the court heard Boston, who gave his address as Ripley Road, Knaresborough, had changed his plea to guilty.
Magistrates fined him £872.
