Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 23 Oct, 17:39 · Archive
Anne Egglestone, 63, has been issued a three-year Criminal Behaviour Order after assaulting neighbours and police officers.
Anne Egglestone, 63, assaulted a woman and damaged her mobile phone during an argument with neighbours at her Spinney Close home in Thorpe St Andrew, Norwich, in July. Following this incident, Egglestone made argumentative and abusive calls to the Norfolk Police non-emergency switchboard, breaching a previous ban on calling 999 except for genuine emergencies.
When police arrested her on 16 August, she became verbally abusive, physically aggressive and violent towards officers. Four officers were assaulted, with reports of biting and kicking. Egglestone pleaded guilty to four counts of assaulting a constable in the execution of duty, two counts of failing to comply with a Community Protection Notice, obstructing a constable, common assault and criminal damage.
She was issued a three-year Criminal Behaviour Order prohibiting her from behaviour that causes nuisance, disturbance or annoyance, and banning her from contacting police except for genuine emergencies. She received an 18-week prison sentence suspended for two years, and was ordered to pay £350 compensation, a £154 victim surcharge and £85 in costs. The incidents follow years of anti-social behaviour; Egglestone has 19 previous convictions for 74 offences.
