A man responsible for cash at a McDonald’s outlet pocketed more than €7,000 on trips to the safe has been jailed. Detective Sergeant Kieran O’Sullivan testified at the sentencing hearing at Cork Circuit Criminal Court that Martin Humpreys of Knockpogue Avenue, Farranree, Cork, was working in McDonald’s on Commons Road, Blackpool, Cork, at the time. The detective said the same man had convictions for similar crimes involving the theft of more than €6,000 from TK Maxx in Cork while he was working there previously. He brought €800 to court yesterday to add to €300 he brought recently for McDonald’s. Judge Seán Ó Donnabháin said it was unrealistic to expect an adjournment for further compensation and a suspended sentence.
