Stolen property was found at his home and he was arrested.<br /><br />Police images of Askale show him covered in the spray.<br /><br />The spray uses a liquid that contains a unique chemical signature that can be matched and traced back to the scene of a particular crime.<br /><br />Askale was given a sentence of 49 hours community service and ordered to pay £400 costs by the court.<br /><br />--------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />TomoNews is your daily source for top animated news.
