It follows her latest conviction for failing to comply with a community protection notice by being arrested for drunk and disorderly and being in possession of alcohol in Huntingdon High Street on 12 February.

She pleaded guilty on 5 April and was given a 12-month community order.

Sergeant Greenham, from Huntingdon Police Station, said: “Anti-social behaviour can have a significant negative impact on those living, working and visiting in the areas where it happens.

"We hope this CBO makes it clear that we will take robust action against those who continually act in a way that is detrimental to our community.”
