A woman has been banned from a number of streets because of her anti-social behaviour.

Harlow Magistrates handed Ruby Short, 42, of Magdalen Green, Thaxted, an ASBO for an indefinite period on August 25.

A police spokesman said: “Since 2004, she has had a history of anti-social behaviour when under the influence of alcohol.

“Her neighbours suffer anti-social behaviour from both Ruby Short and her visitors, as do shops and drinking establishments in Thaxted town centre.

“It affects both residents and visitors to the area.”
