A FESTIVE fanatic known as Mr Christmas has been fined for stealing an iPhone.

Andy Park, a minor celebrity in his home town of Melksham, claims to celebrate Christmas every day of the year.

But he is more likely to be dubbed St Nick from now on after his court appearance.

National newspaper reports today (Thursday) detail how Mr Park, of Primrose Drive, Melksham, pleaded guilty to stealing a woman's £500 mobile phone.

The court was told the electrician nicked the phone as he DJ'd at a woman's 30th birthday bash in Bristol.

He was fined £220 with £165 costs.
