A MAN and two women were ordered to spend a day in jail after breaching anti-social behaviour injunctions.
Mark Whincup, Andrea Atkinson and Jean Tully appeared before Teesside Crown Court last Thursday, where they admitted breaches of injunctions, which barred them from the Dunbar Road area of Hartlepool.
All three were sentenced to one day in prison, and were warned by Judge Anthony Briggs that they could face a minimum 14-day prison sentence if they flouted the injunctions again.
The trio were found in a house in Dunbar Road on May 16, when police visited the premises to arrest Whincup in connection with a separate offence.
Housing Hartlepool took out anti-social behaviour injunctions against the three when they were squatting in a house in Dunbar Road.
The group, who moved into the home of a vulnerable man, held parties with loud music, drank in public, intimidated neighbours and passers-by and used foul language.
