North Yorkshire man jailed for breaching behaviour order

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 17 Oct, 12:32 · Archive

David Fraser Flinton was sentenced to 12 months in prison for repeatedly breaching a Criminal Behaviour Order in Scarborough.

David Fraser Flinton, 45, of Spreight Lane Steps in Scarborough, appeared before Scarborough Magistrates' Court on Monday 12 October. He admitted five breaches of a Criminal Behaviour Order and one offence of trespassing on a railway.

Flinton had been handed the Criminal Behaviour Order on 9 December 2025. The order restricted him from being in possession of an open container of alcohol or consuming alcohol in public within a defined area of Scarborough.

The court sentenced him to 12 months in prison and ordered him to pay a victim surcharge of £187. North Yorkshire Police noted that the court had observed a flagrant disregard for court orders and found there was no real prospect of rehabilitation given his wilful refusal to comply.
