David Clift, 45, of Truckle Road, was sentenced at Salisbury Crown Court today after he pleaded guilty to three counts of burglary. Cllift was arrested on November 9 following reports of a number of non-dwelling burglaries in the Larkill and Tidworth area. Clift pleaded guilty to a break-in at an address in The Packway on November 5, where he stole a charity box, a burglary in Old Sarum between November 2 and 6 and a burglary in Tidworth on September 1 where cash and other items were stolen. Eleven further burglary offences were taken into consideration ahead of sentencing yesterday. Insp Tina Osborn said: “Clift is a prolific offender – his actions have caused upset to a number of people over the years and I am grateful to the officers from our Neighbourhood and Volume Crime Teams who have been working closely to target repeat offenders. “Burglary can have a lasting impact and it is crucial that these offences are thoroughly investigated and put before the courts.” As well as the two year prison sentence, Clift was ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £187.
