A woman has appeared at Derry Magistrates' Court charged with stealing a number of items from the Visit Derry shop in Waterloo Place.
Michaela Edgar (34) of Hydebank was charged with the offences that occurred on October 15, 2023 when she stole a sweatshirt, socks and coins from the shop.
Defence solicitor Keith Kyle said that Edgar had pleaded guilty to the offences, telling the court that 'virtually everything' on her record could be linked to her mental health issues.
She was sentenced to six months in custody.
