A man has appeared in court charged with a house burglary and the theft of a car earlier this year.

Anthony Rodriguez-Taylor, 24, from Sea Mills, Bristol, appeared at South Somerset Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday, April 3, and was remanded in custody pending a further appearance at Taunton Crown Court on May 7.

The charge comes after thieves gained entry to a house in Wookey, Somerset, in the early hours of February 22.

While the residents slept, the burglars took keys in order to steal a black Land Rover Discovery, registration KN68 XJM. The vehicle has not been recovered.
