A 26-YEAR-OLD man from Pembroke Dock has appeared before magistrates charged with fraud by false representation.

Alfie Shelley, aged 26, of Market Street, Pembroke Dock, appeared at Haverfordwest Magistrates’ Court on Monday (Feb 16) for his first hearing.

The court heard the allegation relates to an incident on April 19, 2025, at an address in Bush Street, Pembroke Dock, where it is alleged Shelley dishonestly made a false representation intending to cause loss to Neil Hiatt or expose him to a risk of loss.

The charge is brought under sections 1 and 2 of the Fraud Act 2006.

No plea was entered at this stage.

Shelley was granted conditional bail. As part of his bail conditions, he must not contact Neil Hiatt or Ellie Hiatt directly or indirectly.

The court was told the conditions were imposed to prevent interference with witnesses and to ensure the course of justice is not obstructed.

The case was adjourned for trial at Haverfordwest Magistrates’ Court on Thursday, March 26 at 12:00pm.

Custodial sentence imposed for incidents on A1(M) and at Haverfordwest railway station

A TEENAGER from Pembroke Dock has been jailed for eighteen weeks after admitting offences which caused serious disruption to both road and rail networks.

Jeylane Bamford, aged eighteen, formerly of Britannia Drive, Pembroke Dock, appeared for sentencing at Haverfordwest Magistrates’ Court on Monday (Feb 16).

The court heard that on January 24, 2026, Bamford walked into a live lane of the A1(M) at Hatfield, Hertfordshire, interfering with the operation of key national infrastructure. The offence was prosecuted under the Public Order Act 2023.

Magistrates were told the incident created a serious risk to road users and caused significant disruption to services.

Bamford also admitted a separate offence committed on January 14, 2026, at Cartlett railway station in Haverfordwest, where she trespassed on the railway and obstructed an engine or carriage, contrary to the Malicious Damage Act 1861.

A further charge of intentionally or recklessly causing a public nuisance — relating to lying in the live carriageway of the A1(M) — was also taken into account.

The bench said the offences were so serious that only an immediate custodial sentence could be justified, citing disregard for public safety and the scale of disruption caused.

Bamford received a total custodial sentence of eighteen weeks’ imprisonment, with the terms to run concurrently. No order for costs was made due to her lack of means and the immediate custody imposed.

District Judge Alaw Harries presided, sitting with magistrates Dr S Hancock, Mr D Fawcett and Mr R John. The prosecution was conducted by Sian Vaughan.

A MAN has admitted stalking a woman over a two-month period in Neyland and has been placed on conditional bail ahead of sentencing.

Andrew Richards, aged 39, of High Street, Neyland, appeared before Haverfordwest Magistrates’ Court on Monday (Feb 16), where he pleaded guilty to stalking without fear, alarm or distress.

The court heard that between December 2, 2025 and February 15, 2026, Richards pursued a course of conduct which amounted to the stalking of a female in Milford Haven.

The offence falls under Section 2A of the Protection from Harassment Act 1997.

Magistrates adjourned the case for a pre-sentence report to be prepared and remanded Richards on conditional bail.

As part of those conditions, he must not contact the complainant directly or indirectly and must not post anything on social media relating to her.

He is also banned from entering Milford Haven town unless attending pre-arranged medical appointments.

Richards was ordered to live and sleep each night at his home address in Neyland while on bail.

The case will return to Haverfordwest Magistrates’ Court for sentencing on Monday, March 9.
