In Gloucester Youth Court today, 15 year-old Deano Harrison was banned from all fast food shops and City Safe members in the city. This follows hundreds of reports of anti-social behaviour by Deano and his associates.
Project Solace, supported by Gloucester City Council and the City Safe Scheme, obtained the order banning Deano from the shops, and curbing his behaviour when in the city. Failure to comply with the order can result in a prison sentence.
Sylvia Lane, ASB officer for Project Solace, said ‘We have received reports from dozens of businesses and individuals who have been affected by Deano’s behaviour. We never want to take young people through the legal system, however in this case Deano has ignored every opportunity to change his behaviour. I am hopeful this Injunction will give some respite to the people and businesses of Gloucester.’
This is the fourth Youth Injunction obtained by Project Solace in Gloucester, since changes to the law allowed Injunctions to be given to minors.
