A shoplifter already banned from entering several shops across Crewe has been jailed after breaching the terms of his Criminal Behaviour Order (CBO).
Christopher Evanson, of no fixed abode in Crewe, first appeared at Warrington Magistrates’ Court on Monday 6 October.
However, in addition to this, he went on to plead guilty to shoplifting, including stealing products to the value of approximately £200 from a branch of Co-Op in Shavington.
Officers also found him to be in breach of his CBO, which he was originally served with earlier in the year, and the conditions state he must now not enter Dorothy Flude Retail Park, among other restrictions, with the order was in place for four years.
Inspector Dan Welch, of Crewe’s Local Policing Unit, said: “Evanson is a prolific offender, and we’re committed to making Crewe and the surrounding areas a hostile environment for those intent on causing havoc for businesses in our community.
“The CBO was put in place to allow for swift action to hold Evanson responsible for his crimes and he is now spending time behind bars for his failure to adhere to the conditions of his order.
“I hope this will provide reassurance to local businesses, demonstrating that we’re committed to doing all we can to tackle shoplifting across Crewe.”
