An appeal judge has ruled that the seven year jail sentence given to a Weston buglar was unduly harsh.

Calam Atour of Brighton Road will now serve five and half years, following the verdict at London’s Criminal Appeal Court.

The 38 year old pleaded guilty to four counts of burglary in the Bristol area last year - with a court hearing then he had over a hundred previous separate convictions, including 18 for burgling people's homes.
