Kevin Nicholas was sentenced to 18 months at Greenock Sheriff Court on Wednesday, after carrying out a series of thefts and shoplifting in Greenock and Port Glasgow.
Sergeant Scott Clark said: “Nicholas is a brazen and prolific thief and his actions have impacted local businesses, so I am pleased to be able to give them some respite and remove him from our streets.
