A MAN has denied stealing more than £17,000 from a Foxholes fuel company.
Sean Perry, 29, has pleaded not guilty to taking £17,638.33 from Watson Wood Fuels and will stand trial at York Crown Court on October 15.
The offence is alleged to have taken place between January 4 and June 30 last year.
Perry, of Constable Road, Hunmanby, has entered a not guilty plea at York Crown Court during a brief hearing in which an initial three-day period was set aside for the trial.
Perry was handed bail ahead of the date, and warned not to approach the complainant in the case.
