Shields Gazette
|October 09, 2025
A man apprehended by police as he ran from a house he had damaged in South Tyneside, told them, "I'm not a burglar, I only smashed the windows.
Jack Waggett, 30, was spotted as he lowered himself from an upper floor of a property in Copley Avenue, Whiteleas, on the night of Thursday, September 4.
He had been temporarily staying there with his partner after she struck up a friendship with the female tenant, borough magistrates heard.
But the relationship soured after just a week when his girlfriend threatened to kill herself and was allegedly assaulted by the householder.
In retaliation, Waggett damaged three windows to the value of £1,000, prosecutor Glenda Beck said.
