A man has been banned from entering shops in Calverton for three years after police successfully applied for a criminal behaviour order against him
Martin Gregg, 49, of Calverton, who police described as a ‘persistent shoplifter’, is now banned from entering the Co-op in Collyer Road and the Sainsbury’s in St Wilfrid’s Square.
Gregg was handed the criminal behaviour order when he appeared at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court on August 24, 2023 after pleading guilty to two counts of theft.
He was jailed for 24 weeks – in addition to receiving a criminal behaviour order which will run until August 24, 2026.
Police Constable Abigail Green, beat manager for Calverton, said: “Gregg is a prolific and brazen retail offender within the village and his behaviour is known to make people in the community feel frightened and intimidated.
“Successfully obtaining this order sends a clear message we will not tolerate this sort of behaviour and I hope it also reassures our local retailers and wider communities that we will use all powers available to us to crack down on offenders and protect residents and businesses from harm.”
