Asbo orders teen to get drunk
A teenager has been given an Asbo ordering him to get drunk in a court blunder
The error was only noticed when the 15-year-old ended up in front of magistrates again for an alleged breach of the conditions.
Magistrates heard the youngster, who cannot be named, was technically breaking the law if he was found walking the streets of a quiet market town without alcohol.
The order also required him to use threatening behaviour likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress to members of the public in Alnwick, Northumberland.
The Asbo - issued last February after a string of complaints - reads 'without' rather than 'with', reports the Daily Mirror.
An exasperated police source said: "It took a long time to bring him to book and get him before the court in the first place.
"It is maddening to spend all that time only for the order then to tell him to go out and misbehave. It really does beggar belief."
