A woman has admitted burglary and fraud following an incident in Clarence Road in Gosport.

Michelle Jewell, 42, of no fixed abode, entered the flat of a man in his 80s on 1 December 2021 and stole two wallets.

Bank cards from these wallets were then used by Jewell to purchase goods at local shops.

Following an investigation led by the Operation Hawk team, Jewell was arrested and charged with burglary and two counts of fraud by false representation.

She appeared at Portsmouth Crown Court today (Thursday 13 January 2022) and admitted all three charges.

Jewell was remanded in custody to appear at the same court on Tuesday 18 January for sentencing.
