A judge has issued a warrant for the arrest of a woman who is due to stand trial for burglary next week.

Jennifer Stickley is said to have taken part in a break-in at a house on Wessington Park, Calne, in June last year.

But when the 20-year-old's case was listed at Swindon Crown Court she failed to attend, leading to the warrant being issued by Judge Tim Mousley QC.

Ronan McCann, defending, said her legal team had tried to contact her about the hearing but had not been successful in getting hold of her.

He said were a warrant to be issued it should be easy to execute as she was working in a Wetherspoons pub.

Stickley, formerly of Westview Crescent, Devizes, but now living on Silver Street, Trowbridge, pleaded not guilty to the allegation last year.
