The thief also stole a number of other items from different shops in the city.

A man has been jailed after stealing 29 chocolate bunnies from a supermarket. Jordan Cole, 36, stole the Lindt chocolate bunnies from Sainbury’s in Sidney Street, Cambridge, on Wednesday, January 28.

Between September 30 and January 24, Cole also stole a range of items from Cambridge shops. These included perfume from John Lewis, laundry products from B&M at the Beehive Centre, meat from Aldi, in Newmarket Road, and T-shirts from Hugo Boss, in Market Hill.

He also breached his criminal behaviour order (CBO) by entering the Aldi on Newmarket Road. At Cambridge Magistrates’ Court on Friday, January 30, Cole, of no fixed abode, pleaded guilty to 12 counts of theft and breaching a CBO.

He was sentenced to 24 weeks in prison and ordered to pay £300 in compensation.

PC Alex Thake, who investigated, said: “Cole’s series of thefts caused significant distress and upheaval for businesses and their employees. We take shoplifting offences seriously and will continue to work hard to bring offenders to justice.”

The 46-year-old has been jailed for over a year.

A man who filmed in women’s toilets has been jailed. Alan Russell, 46, was reported to his bosses by a colleague in April 2025 after he followed her to the women’s toilet at their workplace in Huntingdon.

CCTV footage showed Russell waiting for the victim to close the cubicle door, before entering the toilets while filming on his phone. This was in breach of a sexual harm prevention order (SHPO) imposed by Lincolnshire Magistrates’ Court in July 2015 after Russell was convicted of multiple voyeurism offences.

Part of the SHPO forbade Russell from entering any female toilets, loitering within 10m of any public toilet, or entering any room that females use as a changing room.

The 46-year-old of Princes Street, Peterborough, admitted to voyeurism and breaching a SHPO at Cambridge Crown Court on Thursday (February 5). He was sentenced to one year and six months in prison.
