Bucks man given two year Criminal Behaviour Order
He was also fined nearly ÂŁ100
A Bucks man has been given a Criminal Behaviour Order (CBO), after he was convicted of a public order offence and breaching a community protection notice.
Thomas Harrington, aged 42, of High Street in Weedon, pleaded guilty to one count of disorderly conduct and one count of failing to comply with a community protection notice in a hearing at High Wycombe Magistrates’ Court on Monday (14 December).
He was subsequently fined ÂŁ40, with ÂŁ30 costs and a ÂŁ24 victim surcharge, and issued with a CBO.
This bans him from shouting or swearing in public near his address and orders that he must not cause excessive noise by banging on his walls, through use of his television or any other electronic device.
He must also not enter the boundaries or property belonging to another person without permission of the owner, occupant or tenant, and must not take pictures or videos of people or their property without their permission other than for crime prevention and detection purposes.
The order will be in place for two years.
The offences that Harrington admitted happened in June and November this year.
PC Glen Crosland, based at Aylesbury police station, said:
"This was a positive piece of work from PC Matthew Craker from the Wing neighbourhood team, PC Helen Rutherford from Aylesbury ICR Team 5 and myself in the Aylesbury neighbourhood team.
"We took a proactive approach in dealing with an ongoing problem that had been subjecting the residents of High Street in Weedon to anti-social behaviour for a lengthy period of time.
"Hopefully they will now be able to get some respite from this behaviour and feel safe in their homes and as they go about their daily lives.
"Thames Valley Police will not tolerate such anti-social behaviour and will take action to prevent this from occurring through the courts where appropriate."
