HILLSBOROUGH BURGLAR JAILED A 30-YEAR-OLD Hillsborough man is starting a three-year prison sentence after being convicted of burglary.
Dominic Ransom, of Leppings Lane, appeared before Sheffield Crown Court on Wednesday November 21. He pleaded guilty to two burglaries and was sentenced to three years in prison. On August 7 of this year, Ransom broke into a house on Wadsley Lane in Shef-
field, stealing watches, wallets and an amount of cash.
On August 13, he broke into a second house, this time on Stanwood Crescent in Sheffield, stealing laptops and a wallet. Investigations led officers to Ransom’s home on September 6 where he was found hiding in a kitchen cupboard. He was subsequently arrested.
Investigating Officer PC David Stacey said: “We are pleased with the sentence that Ransom has received; burglary can have a long-term impact on victims, especially in cases like these where the homeowner witnessed Ransom in action. “Our officers worked hard to track Ransom down and I hope the community are reassured by his sentence.”
Young bards praised for 12th Night performance DEEPCAR St John’s CE Junior School have recently performed a Shakespearian play, Twelfth Night, at Barnsley Civic Theatre. This was part of the Shakespeare Schools Foundation Shakespeare Festival for schools. Miss Anne Danks, a Y4 teacher, successfully applied for some funding from the BlueSpark Foundation. This enabled the pupils to gain an invaluable experience to perform in a professional theatre both in acting and in technical roles - learning how to work the lights and sound to bring the production to life.
The children were initially very nervous but performed the play superbly in front an audience. They were brilliant at learning their difficult lines and were praised by the Shakespeare Schools Foundation professionals for their understanding of the language of Shakespeare and their characterisation. Their comedic performance of the exaggerated characters in Twelfth Night brought laughter from the audience who, like the actors and technicians, thoroughly enjoyed the performance.
