A THIEF has admitted stealing a bank card from a Greenock flat and using it to help herself to £50 from an ATM.

Kirsty McLintock, 34, took the card and £10 from a property on Regent Street last September, then made a beeline for the cash machine at the nearby BP filling station.

She also pleaded guilty at the sheriff court through lawyer Aidan Gallagher to six breaches of bail.

Sheriff Thomas Ward deferred sentence on her for a background report.
