A drug addict from Bradford has been jailed for stealing from a cash in-transit security guard.
Shamraze Hussain, 28, and an accomplice stole £1,000 in coins in an attack outside the Barclays Bank on Carlisle Street, in Manningham, on 14 July.
Bradford Crown Court heard how Hussain had three weeks previously robbed a gold locket from the neck of a 75-year-old woman.
His barrister claimed he was remorseful and had committed the crimes while he was in the grip of a heroin addiction.
He was sentenced to four years in prison.
