A Wigan man is in custody awaiting sentence for a whole raft of crimes including multiple thefts

A one-man Wigan crime wave will be sentenced for 14 thefts, a burglary and knife possession next month.

Mark Seddon, 44, of Botany Close, Aspull, has now confessed to a litany of crimes which saw him repeatedly target Booths at Burscough for hundreds of pounds worth of spirits and various Tesco Expresses for confectionery.

He also burgled a Tesco, obstructed a police officer and was caught with a knife in Whelley.

Seddon is remanded into custody until a Bolton Crown Court judge decides his fate on October 8.
