This is the moment a prolific burglar breaks into a garage in a matter of seconds.
The hooded figure is Sean Beard, 33, of Tennyson Avenue. He has just been jailed for more than three years for a major theft spree which included this burglary.
At York Crown Court, he pleaded guilty to two counts of breaching a Criminal Behaviour Order, two counts of burglary, theft from a motor vehicle and vehicle interference.

The video released by North Yorkshire Police shows him accessing a garage in the Foxwood area in the early hours of Saturday 23 August.
Using a special lockpick key, he was in and out with the bike within seconds.
PC Ricci Haslam from North Yorkshire Police said: “Officers previously engaged with Beard to get the CBO issued in order to help him stay away from certain areas to protect local residents and businesses from crime.
“However he has been persistent in his offending and I’m glad to see that he has now been handed a custodial sentence.
“As this case shows we work closely with members of the public, businesses and partners in our communities to pursue those who commit such crimes.”
