A Spice addict who abused and threatened members of the public has been banned from Manchester city centre.
Priestley Cleworth, 24, was sleeping rough but, according to a statement from Manchester City Council, he persistently refused to engage with council homelessness services who tried to offer him support.
In January 2017 Cleworth was issued with a warning which excluded him from Piccadilly Gardens in Manchester city centre. The warning was issued following Cleworth aggressively begging, openly smoking Spice and being verbally abusive to the public.
Cleworth breached the order seven times, resulting in his summons to the Manchester Civil Justice Centre on 15 May.
Cleworth admitted to all of the breaches and did not contest the interim injunction. He was given a two year Injunction Order banning him from Manchester city centre and a 14 day suspended sentence for each breach.
