A pair have been banned from a host of North East retail stores after being arrested nearly 400 times for antisocial behaviour.
Anne Marie Simpson, 36, of Woodbine Street, Bensham, and her partner Christopher Rutherford, 40, of Hazlett Avenue, South Shields, were both handed two-year criminal behaviour orders earlier this month for their “relentless” activities.
Simpson has been arrested more than 190 times, and has previously been arrested for offences including assault, burglary and robbery. She will be arrested on entering any Asda, Heron Foods, Sainsbury’s and Tesco stores in the Northumbria Police area, as well as Next or Wilko in South Shields town centre.
