Magistrates order 'prolific' beggar not to ask for money

Laura Kearns 13th Jul, 2017   0

A ‘PROLIFIC’ beggar has been ordered by magistrates not to ask for money in the town.

David White, who is known locally as Ozzy, has been issued with a Criminal Behaviour Order by Leamington Magistrates Court.

The order is the fourth secured by police in a bid to tackle begging in the town.

It stops Mr White from asking the public for money, sitting on the pavement or shop doorways in Leamington and placing a hat or cup on the ground in such a way which may encourage people to give him money.
