A 14-year-old stole seven airsoft guns and more than 4,000 clay bearings during a burglary at a property in Andover.
The youth, who cannot be named for legal reasons, admitted to stealing the guns along with 4,200 clay bearings and a cammo jacket after entering a property off King Arthurs Way in January when he appeared in Basingstoke Youth Court recently.
Magistrates sentenced the teenager by way of a youth rehabilitation order with a school attendance requirement and a 15-week curfew.
His mother was also made the subject of a parenting order to co-operate with the youth offending team for a year.
