Alan Succo, 31, admitted the two robberies at Morrisons in Oakley Road at Northampton Crown Court yesterday (Tuesday).

Succo, of Alberta Close in the town, robbed a woman at a cashpoint at the supermarket on July 30.

And just days later he struck again and robbed a 71-year-old woman.

He approached the elderly victim in the car park on August 2 and grabbed her handbag from her arm, causing her to fall to the ground. He was then chased off by a member of the public.

Succo was jailed for three years and nine months.
