A man has been handed a Criminal Behaviour Order (CBO) banning him from shops and having an open container of alcohol in Norwich.
Sam Bayton, 37, of Bracondale, Norwich appeared at Norwich Magistrates’ Court, yesterday (Tuesday 4 February 2025) where he was handed the order after pleading guilty to drunk and disorderly in a public place and a public order offence.
This follows an incident on 10 December 2024 where Bayton was on Gentleman's Walk, Norwich, and was witnessed acting in a drunk manor slurring his words and stumbling. He has also then begun shouting and swearing in a public place.
The conditions set out in Bayton’s CBO state that he must NOT:
- Be in possession of an open container of alcohol in Norwich as defined by the Outer Ring Road.
- Enter the exclusion zone as defined by Norwich map, including Prince of Wales Road, Eastbourne Place, Mountergate, Rose Lane and Charles Darwin Primary School.

Sgt Ali Tassie from the Operational Partnership Team in Norwich, said: “This person has been committing numerous offences whilst under the influence of alcohol and we hope that this CBO will help to reduce his offending in the city centre.”
