A THIEF who stole alcohol is now suffering from liver failure.
On Thursday, Alexander McPhee admitted stealing booze from the town's Asda store on September 13 last year.
Defending, Chris Macfarlane told Alloa Sheriff Court that his 31-year-old client was "not a well man" and had severe health difficulties, including liver failure.
McPhee, of Craighorn Road in Alva, was thereafter admonished.
