An Amesbury man has been charged with three counts of burglary.

David Clift, 45, of Truckle Road, was arrested on Wednesday (9/11) following reports of a number of non-dwelling burglaries in the Larkhill and Tidworth areas.

Clift has been charged with a break-in at an address in The Packway on November 5, where he stole a charity box.

There was also 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.

He was remanded in custody and appeared at Salisbury Magistrates Court yesterday (11/11).

The case has been committed to Salisbury Crown Court on December 2, where 11 further burglary offences will also be taken into consideration.
