Frome shoplifter banned from every Co-Op and M&S
He can't go in any of the stores nationwide.
A prolific shoplifter from Frome has been banned from every Co-Op and Marks & Spencer in the country.
Callum Macdonald, who is 20, was convicted of three thefts in which he stole hundreds of pounds worth of alcohol, food and household items.
If he breaches the Criminal Behaviour Order, he could face five years in jail.
The CBO was granted by magistrates in Yeovil following an application from our Antisocial Behaviour Team and the Neighbourhood Policing Team.
In addition to the nationwide ban, he is also barred from any business or retail premises at which he has previously been issued with a verbal or written ban.
Neighbourhood Inspector Matt Reed said: “Callum MacDonald is far more than a nuisance. His offending has had a significant impact on shop workers, business owners and on police, with valuable resources being used to respond to and investigate incidents he’s involved in.
“The CBO he is now subject to ensures the people and businesses he has most frequently targeted can be reassured measures are in place to prevent him from reoffending.
“Should he breach any of the conditions he is likely to be arrested and could serve time in prison.”
