Raid Gone Wrong
David George, 21, from Hatfield, Domingo Nsita, 29, from London, and Joshua Tiloye, 22, from Stevenage, all pleaded guilty to robbing Justice Jewellers on Parchment Street.
The trio targeted the store on April 15, arriving in a white van. Tiloye and George jumped out wearing motorcycle helmets, bursting into the shop just as the owner was opening up.
Armed with an imitation gun, they threatened the owner and snatched thousands of pounds worth of valuables — but Hampshire officers were soon on the scene.
