A 17-year-old who terrorised a community was locked up for entering St Helens town centre.
The teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was under a Criminal Behaviour Order (CBO) after numerous offences in which he 'terrorised' the local community and businesses around St Helens town centre. These included possession of an offensive weapon, drugs offences, anti-social behaviour, assault, breach of a curfew, stealing a bicycle and shoplifting.
The CBO banned the boy from entering certain parts of St Helens, including the town centre. His latest offence occurred on Friday, March 25, when he was seen on Corporation Street in St Helens coming from the bus station, before turning onto Parade Street. He was later cautioned and arrested by an officer for breaching the CBO.
