Main article content
A man has pleaded guilty to two counts of burglary after breaking into properties in Trowbridge and stealing jewellery.
Ryan Jones, 33, of Silver Birch Grove, Trowbridge, appeared at Salisbury Crown Court on Wednesday (17/01).
In January last year, Jones broke into a property in Lowmead in Trowbridge, stealing sentimental family jewellery.
On March 20, 2023, Jones broke into a property in Ramsbury Walk through a kitchen window and searched the house, stealing watches and silver bangles.
Enquiries into the burglaries identified Jones as the suspect and he was arrested, charged and remanded in custody.
PC Grist from the Force Burglary unit said: “Jones has caused a great amount of upset to the community and I’m pleased that he has pleaded guilty to these offences.
“We will not tolerate this.
“Burglary is one of the most invasive crimes with a long-lasting effect upon the victims and causes a great deal of concern within communities.
“Our Burglary unit is dedicated to cracking down on burglars and ensuring people can feel safe in their homes.”
Jones is due to be sentenced at Salisbury Crown Court at the end of March.
