It was a simple mistake, Richard Alun Roberts told a Denbigh court, that led him to break into a charity shop and engage in sexual intercourse.

Roberts said he entered the shop believing it was his girlfriend's flat. Only after having sex with her did he spot his surroundings, upon which he stole £18.90 from the till and two suede coats.

The prosecution said that Roberts "had sexual intercourse with the female, in the room, and at the conclusion realised it was St Kentigern's charity shop and not a dwelling."

In mitigation, the defence said: "The intention of the visitation was to have a bit of slap and tickle, or sexual intercourse, with the young lady." Alcohol had also played a part.

Roberts - who had previously failed to attend a trial at which he was found guilty in absentia -was placed on probation for a year and ordered to pay £18.90 in compensation to St Kentigern's.
