Man Jailed After Assaulting Security & Breaching Criminal Behaviour Order

A man has been jailed after he breached a criminal behaviour order (CBO) and assaulted a security guard in Stoke-on-Trent. 

Robert Shenton, 48, from Stoke-on-Trent, was sentenced to 14 weeks in prison at the North Staffordshire Justice Centre on Wednesday (10 September) after he pleaded guilty to two counts of breaching a criminal behaviour order and one count of common assault. 

On Monday 1 September, Shenton entered Hanley bus station, an area which a CBO banned him from entering. When approached by security staff, he attempted to hit them with a bottle. 

Shenton entered Hanley bus station again on Friday (5 September) but left when challenged by security staff. 

PC Bridget Jackson said: “Shenton showed disregard for a criminal behaviour order which was issued back in July, and I am pleased that he has now received a custodial sentence. 

“I hope this conviction shows we are committed to protecting communities and businesses across Stoke-on-Trent and wider Staffordshire.”
