A man has been banned from Crewe town centre after he was handed a two-year Criminal Behaviour Order (CBO).
William Woodward, of Crewe, was handed the order at Chester Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday 18 March, after officers from Crewe Local Policing Unit successfully evidenced repeated shoplifting offences in the town.
The 41-year-old must not enter Crewe town centre as per the exclusion map area.

He must also not enter the following stores:
- Queens Park Service Station, Victoria Avenue, Crewe
- Farmfoods Limited, Oak Street, Crewe
- Morrisons, Dunwoody Way, Crewe
- Home Bargains, Forge Street, Crewe
Inspector Dan Welch said:
“This Criminal Behaviour Order has some stringent conditions which should go a long way in putting a stop to Woodward’s offending and making sure if he does breach any of his conditions, he can be quickly dealt with.
“This week is Operation Watchmaker – a force-wide operation focusing on shoplifting and retail-related crime, linking in with local businesses and retail partners, and highlighting our commitment to keeping our shops and businesses safe from crime.
“This result further emphasises that we use all the tools available to us to stop offenders like Woodward.
“If anyone witnesses him breaching his CBO, please contact Cheshire Police on 101 or through our website to report it.”
