A LEOMINSTER man stole four joints of meat from a supermarket.
Warren Jewell of Middlemarsh pleaded guilty to theft from a shop.
Hereford Magistrates' Court heard on February 28 the 45-year-old stole £24.33-worth of meat from Aldi in Leominster.
The meat was returned as he was caught by security staff.
He admitted he had breached a conditional discharge given to him in June last year.
The court heard he hoped to be selected for a rehabilitation centre and was currently homeless and staying at friends' homes.
He is also receiving a methadone prescription.
Magistrates fined him £30 and another £30 for the breach. He was also ordered to pay a £20 victim surcharge.
