Serial burglar first to be jailed following prosecution by private police force

A prolific burglar has become the first to be jailed in a prosecution by a private police force after the local constabulary failed to investigate.

The thief, who had 105 previous convictions including 33 burglaries, was arrested by two detectives from the private policing company after he broke into an M&S store to steal £500 of sirloin, T-bone steak and 20 bottles of Prosecco.

Even though he was caught in the act on CCTV and the M&S store manager called the police, the Metropolitan Police decided not to investigate.

Soon Robodogs I bet.
