A Wigan man who stole two bottles of vodka and an electric toothbrush from a supermarket has been jailed.

Joshua Hughes, 26, of no fixed address, pleaded guilty to taking a toothbrush worth £70 from Asda in Wigan on February 13 and two bottles of vodka worth £66 from the same store on February 20.

The hearing was told he made regular appearances in court, not least for thefts so Wigan justices sent him to prison for 16 weeks and ordered him to pay £136 compensation.
