A MAN from Weymouth has been told to pay £200 in compensation after damaging a door and a shower at a housing shelter.

Ryan Pullin, whose address was given as Lennox Street, was charged with causing criminal damage to property valued under £5,000.

The 22-year-old entered a guilty plea before magistrates on Monday, March 21.

Pullin had caused damage, without lawful excuse, to a lock, a door frame and a shower at a property belonging to Bristol Foundation Housing in the St George area of Bristol on November 11, 2019.

The total value of the property that was damaged came in at £200.

As a result, magistrates ordered Pullin to pay £200 in compensation alongside costs of £85.

He has until April 4 to pay the full amount.
