A 15-YEAR-OLD has been sentenced at youth court for his part in three burglaries.

The defendant, who cannot be named due to his age, played a role in two burglaries in Baildon and one in Shipley.

He must pay compensation alongside a 12 month community order and three months curfew.

Sergeant Terri Green, who deals with the Baildon, Bingley and Bingley Rural patch, said she is hopeful the teenager will reach out for support in a bid to 'break the cycle' of crime.

The sergeant said: "Let's hope he gets the support to prevent re-offending. #BreakTheCycle"
