Alcohol thief raids Pembroke shop twice in one week

Two burglaries at a Pembroke shop

According to an article published on 12 February 2026 by Westerntelegraph, a shop in Pembroke was targeted twice in one week by the same individual. Morgan Ralph, 40, of Main Street, Pembroke, raided the local Co-op store on 25 January and 31 January.

Westerntelegraph reports that the offender stole alcohol worth £12 during the first incident, returning days later to take two bottles of cider valued at £9. Following a guilty plea entered on 2 February, Haverfordwest Magistrates’ Court sentenced Ralph to a total of 26 weeks in prison for the burglaries and an additional charge of criminal damage. The court ordered the offender to pay £21 in compensation to the Co-op, alongside further costs and compensation to the police.

Business owners are encouraged to review their security measures and surveillance systems to help deter unauthorized access and theft.
