CBO issued to man in King's Lynn

A King’s Lynn man has been given a Criminal Behaviour Order (CBO) restricting his consumption of alcohol.

Adam Jones, aged 34, of no fixed address appeared at Norwich Magistrates Court on Friday 3 May 2024 and was handed the CBO, which was granted for three years.

He was also sentenced to six months imprisonment after pleading guilty to possession of a bladed article and a further two months imprisonment, to run concurrently, after pleaded guilty to six charges of assaulting an emergency worker and three counts of domestic assault.

The conditions in Jones’s CBO state that he must not:

Consume alcohol in a public place other than a licenced premises

Be in possession of any open or opened vessel containing alcohol in a public place

Sgt Donna Wiseman, from the Operational Partnership Team in west Norfolk, said: “It is important that we use all the options available to us when dealing with prolific offenders. The use of Criminal Behaviour Orders shows that we and our partners will not allow people to continue offending when their behaviour results in significant harm to the public.”
