Prolific shoplifter handed five-year Criminal Behaviour Order following shoplifting spree across Crewe

A man from Crewe has been handed a five-year Criminal Behaviour Order after several incidents of shoplifting from multiple retailers across the town.

Nigel Dunn appeared at Crewe Magistrates' Court on Wednesday 5th March, where he was handed the five-year order following numerous shoplifting incidents across the town.

As a result, Dunn, 46, has been banned from entering the Grand Junction Retail Park and the Dorothy Flude Retail Park.

He has also been banned from entering the Victoria Centre in the town centre.

If he fails to comply with the CBO, Dunn will be committing a criminal offence which may result in recall to prison or fine.

Sergeant Jay Burns, of Crewe LPU's Neighbourhood team, said:

"Dunn is a prolific and opportunistic shoplifter who has been targeting the town's local retailers and businesses for a very long time; I hope the issuing of this CBO will deter any further behaviour in the future.

"Safeguarding our local businesses from retail-related crime and anti-social behaviour is part of our daily business and I hope the granting of this CBO can provide some reassurance to both residents and local retailers that we are doing all we can to deter such incidents."

Anyone who encounters Dunn breaching the restrictions of his order is urged to contact Cheshire Police via:

...or call 101, to report it.
