A STREET drinker who regularly swore and behaved aggressively in Worcester and argued with other drinkers is now banned from the city centre.

Mark Millward has now been made subject to a criminal behaviour order (CBO) after he regularly came to police attention for behaving in a drunken, anti-social manner in Worcester city centre.

The 45-year-old's behaviour included shouting, swearing, acting aggressively and becoming involved in regular arguments with other street drinkers.

He is now banned from large parts of Worcester city centre as defined in a map including Foregate Street, City Walls Road, Deansway, The Butts, Tybridge Street and Hylton Road.

A spokesman for West Mercia Police said of Millward: "His behaviour caused significant alarm harassment and distress to members of the public. He is now prohibited from being in Worcester city centre."

Millward is now living in Birmingham.

The CBO is made for three years. He is prohibited from entering the city of Worcester as defined on a map provided to him, shouting and swearing in a public place where it is likely to have caused alarm harassment or distress, refusing to leave an area when he is outside shops, businesses or homes when asked by those who have authority to do so (this includes staff and residents) and behaving in an aggressive manner towards others, including, but not only by, engaging in domestic arguments or fights with his partner.

The public are urged to report any breaches of the CBO to police.

We have previously reported how Millward, sometimes also spelled Milward, was himself assaulted in a kick and stamp attack by Daniel and Paul Spicer in a courtyard off St Paul's Street in Worcester which led to fears he would die from one witness to the attack.

Millward suffered a broken nose and fractured cheekbone in the attack which took place while he was 'in all probability unconscious'. At one stage a weapon was also used.

In January 2016 Daniel Spicer, then 42, was jailed for five years for wounding with intent and possession of an offensive weapon and his brother Paul, then 46, was jailed for three years for causing grievous bodily harm. Daniel Spicer’s jail term was later doubled on appeal.
