A MAN from Llandudno was fined after travelling via railway without having paid his train fare.

Jonathan Burgess, aged 23, of Vaughan Street, was travelling between Llandudno Junction and Bangor on October 7, 2021 despite not having paid his £7.10 fare.

On January 7, Cardiff Magistrates’ Court ordered Mr Burgess to pay a fine of £440 for the offence.

In addition, Mr Burgess was told to pay the £7.10 in compensation, as well as a victim surcharge of £44, and court costs of £179.

This amounted to a total of £670.10, for which Mr Burgess was given until February 4 to pay.
