He admitted stealing £2,000 from a safe during the burglary.

Gerry Coyle, defending, said his client was persuaded to join another man in the burglary, but he did not benefit from any of the stolen cash.

Magistrates delayed sentencing so probation reports could be prepared.

He will next appear on Friday, November 10.
