A Bournemouth man has been jailed after three homes in Poole were burgled this year.

Hardial Spall, 46, was sentenced at Bournemouth Crown Court yesterday to five years and six months in prison, after a trial found him guilty of three burglary offences at local homes.

The first burglary happened at a home in James Road on Friday 30 January, where jewellery was stolen, before two further burglaries at addresses in Wroxham Road on Tuesday 3 March and Monday 6 April.

Police said the later offences involved jewellery, bank cards, cash and a watch being taken, and the Neighbourhood Crime Team linked Spall to all three incidents through a detailed investigation.

Officers examined the scenes, took witness statements and reviewed CCTV, which led to Spall being identified as the man involved and arrested on Thursday 16 April, before he was later charged and taken before the court.

Police Constable Kelly Stronach said Spall entered three different homes and took possessions that included jewellery of "high monetary and sentimental value", adding that officers were "determined" to bring him before the court to "face justice".
