Lewis Wood crept into a family home in Sunderland in the early hours of August 31, wearing a balaclava and gloves and took the keys to the car outside.

Newcastle Crown Court heard the occupants were disturbed by the sound of their front door closing and when they looked outside they realised the silver Audi A3 had gone.

A doorbell camera device captured footage of the masked intruder entering the house and the police were alerted.
