A ONE-MAN crime wave banned from a Gwent town has struck again after he was caught shoplifting, breaking into a garage and carrying drugs.

Guy Seabourne is barred from entering many parts of Abergavenny until 2025 after a criminal behaviour order was imposed last year for his "persistent anti-social behaviour".

The 37-year-old defied the order after he went on a crime spree there between April 15 and May 14.

Seabourne stole a crate of Budweiser beer and steaks from Tesco, seven jars of coffee worth £47.79 from B&M, make-up from Wilko, chocolate and biscuits from the Esso garage on Hereford Road, a £37 tub of protein from Holland & Barrett, speakers from Poundland and cakes from Greggs.

The defendant also stole drills after a burglary at the garage of a house on Poplars Road.

Seabourne, of Lancaster Street, Blaina pleaded guilty to nine counts of theft, burglary, breaching a criminal behaviour order, possession of amphetamine and possession of diazepam.

He was jailed for eight months at Newport Magistrates’ Court.
