A man has been banned from shops in West Cumbria and Carlisle for two years.
Cumbria Constabulary’s Allerdale Neighbourhood Police Team secured the criminal behaviour order against John Pickering, 53, of Maryport, today.
Police said the order was a useful tool to place restrictions on Pickering to prevent further criminality and help protect businesses.
He must not:
- Enter any property or premises that are members of the Workington Schemelink scheme or display the Schemelink logo at any time.
- Enter any property or premises that are members of the Maryport Schemelinkscheme or display the Schemelink logo at any time.
- Enter any property or premises that are members of the Carlisle Shopwatch scheme or display the Shopwatch logo at any time.
- Enter Home Bargains on Derwent Drive, Workington.
Police said anyone seeing the order being broken should contact them immediately.
The punishment for breaking the terms of a criminal behaviour order can be up to five years in prison.
