A MAN was sentenced to two months in prison after admitting to stealing $21 worth of aerosols last week.

Stephen Hilton, 63, was charged with stealing before Senior Magistrate Carolyn Vogt-Evans.

Hilton stole two Lysol sprays valued at $20.99 from Alexandria McKenzie on July 15.

After Hilton pleaded guilty, his lawyer said he suffered from drug addiction.

Prosecutors revealed that Hilton served a three-month prison sentence for another stealing charge last year.

The judge admonished the defendant for his continued criminal behaviour, citing his advanced age before sentencing him to two months in prison.
