PROPERTY worth £3,370 was stolen in night raids on four Kidderminster homes in October and November, the prosecution alleged in court.

Spencer Carter, 26, living on a caravan site in Kingsford Lane, Wolverley, did not ask for bail and was remanded in custody for a week by town magistrates.

He is accused of burglary at three houses in Ferndale Crescent and one in Parkland Avenue.

Carter also faces charges of taking a VW Golf car from Essex in December last year, driving it without insurance and making off without paying for petrol worth £33.
