He terrorised shop staff with a knife as he stole chocolate and baby milk
Shop workers across Leeds were terrorised by a baby-faced robber who brandished weapons at them during a crime spree where he stole coats, baby milk and chocolate.
She said: "I had just become a grandma and in a second that could have changed, he could have killed me all because he needed a fix. How would he feel if someone pulled a knife on his mother or relative?"The court was told that on November 1 at around 3pm, Felton went back to the Matalan store, this time tucking an amount of ladies' clothing items under his arm. Mr Ahmed said: "A member of staff saw he had a coat but also saw a knife in his right hand.
Lucy Brown, mitigating, said Felton is still "relatively young" and he did wish for her to tell the court of his regret surrounding his offending. She said: "This is a young man struggling to deal with a variety of things and struggling to obtain help through the right channels. Part of his motivation for committing these offences was a sense of helplessness and a cry for help and desire to put an end to the situation - he couldn't see a way out.
