ASBO for persistent offender in Maybury
Submitted: 20/07/2010 09:08:15
A 14-year-old boy from Woking has been banned from being out in Woking between 8pm and 7am as one of the conditions of an anti-social behaviour order (ASBO) obtained against him last week.
The two year order against Luke Barton, of Windsor Way, Maybury, was sought by Surrey Police in partnership with Woking Borough Council and was granted at North West Surrey Magistrates Court in Woking last Thursday (15 July).
Barton has been involved in numerous public order offences, assault, harassment and general anti-social behaviour over the last years.
The order also prevents him from:
1. Associating with Benjamin Edgecock or Tyler Lee in any public place or public street in the borough of Woking;
2. Entering the areas on the exclusion map attached and shaded in red at any time;
3. Being out in any public place or public street in the borough of Woking between 8pm and 7am daily, save for when in the company of either his mother, father or grandparents, for a period of four months, to expire on 15 November 2010;
4. From behaving in a manner or inciting others to behave in a manner either verbally or physically which is likely to cause alarm, harassment or distress to one or more persons not of the same household as himself in the borough of Woking.
West Surrey Police’s Antis Social Behaviour Team Manager Jo Grimshaw said: This successful application is in response to Barton’s persistent anti-social behaviour which has plagued the local community in Maybury for long enough.
“Despite being offered a great deal of help and support, he has continued to act in a way that has made life a misery for local residents. We hope this ASBO will help to restore peace and order in the locality for members of the public who should not be forced to tolerate this type of behaviour.”
The ASBO remains in place until midnight on 14 July 2012. If anyone sees Luke Barton breaking any of the conditions above, they should contact Surrey Police immediately, as he can be arrested on sight. All information received will be treated confidentially.
