A SEX offender found hiding naked in a wardrobe while living in a house along with children - breaching a court order - has been jailed for 16 weeks.
Robert Wynn previously admitted being in breach of a sexual offences prevention order and failing to notify the court of a change of address.
He also admitted using threatening words and behavior towards a lollipop lady who he barked at like a dog.
The 27-year-old, of no fixed abode, was handed the order at Hull Crown Court in November 2012, banning him from living at the same address as anyone under 16.
But police received a tip-off that he was living in the Newton Aycliffe area along with a woman and her two children and found him hiding naked in a wardrobe on Sunday, January 26, magistrates were told.
On January 23 he got into an argument with a school crossing guard in Newton Aycliffe when he barked at her, the court heard.
Newton Aycliffe magistrates ordered to pay £100 compensation to the lollipop lady.
