He was arrested in November this year after being linked to the two offences following enquiries by Calderdale detectives.

The 27-year –old was quickly charged and later pleaded guilty at court due to the weight of evidence presented against him.

Detective Inspector Gary Stephenson of Calderdale CID said: “Yet again individuals from outside West Yorkshire have travelled looking for rich pickings within Calderdale and again our investigative teams have brought them before the courts.

“This forms part of our continued commitment to reducing residential burglary within the area.
