 Robert McKinlay faces a number of restrictions of his behaviour |
Police are using posters and leaflets picturing a persistent troublemaker to enforce his Anti-Social Behaviour Order. The leaflets will show Robert McKinlay, 17, and list the conditions of the order, asking people to contact officers if they witness a breach.
McKinlay, from Riddings, Derbyshire, became the subject of the order after a spate of incidents in the village.
He faces up to five years in prison if he is found to be breaking the order.
Active deterrent
Councillor Jack Brown of Amber Valley Borough Council said: "This young man was riding a motorbike around the cricket pitch.
"He was skidding it around, absolutely ruining the pitch.
"It was seen. Everybody saw it in the community. This was the sort of thing he was doing."
Posters tell the public to call the police if they see McKinlay loitering, misbehaving on the streets or riding a motorbike - even as a pillion passenger.
He faces immediate arrest for any incidents of threatening behaviour or vandalism.
Inspector Graham McLauclin of Derbyshire police said: "I firmly believe the quality of life in the communities is very important.
"This leaflet is designed for two purposes, firstly to let the public know we are committed to reducing anti-social behaviour.
"Secondly to serve as an active deterrent to those who might want to get involved in this sort of behaviour."
