A Criminal behaviour Order (CBO) is one of the options available to officers when it comes to dealing with people engaging in repeated anti-social behaviour or low-level crime.
The CBO prevents Bowen from entering the city centre area of Sheffield, being in possession of an open vessel of alcohol in a public place, being intoxicated in a public place and consuming alcohol in a public place.
