AN ASBO yob banned from being drunk in Barnoldswick terrified a young motorist after jumping on her bonnet and smashing the windscreen.

Burnley magistrates heard how Scott Michael Allen, 21, rolled over the roof of Kylie Froggart's vehicle before falling off and ending up lying in the road.

Police found him slumped on the pathway whilst Miss Froggart was shaking and crying.

Allen, of Windsor Place, Barnoldswick, admitted damage and breaching an anti-social behaviour order following the incident on May 2.

He was given 90 days in jail, suspended for a year with 12 months supervision. Allen must also pay £75 costs.

The bench told him he had a "truly appalling" record and had consistently' failed to obey court orders in the past. He was warned he would go to jail if he flouted the new order.

Teresa Feely, prosecuting, told the court Allen was given the ASBO last August and was not allowed to be drunk in public in Barnoldswick.

Miss Froggart, who knew the defendant, had driven to a park in Avon Drive in the town. A group she was with were drinking cider, although she did not drink. Allen was drunk, could hardly stand and couldn't speak.

Miss Feely said the victim decided to leave and the defendant leapt on the bonnet, broke the windscreen and fell off into the road, causing damage to the tune of £350 to her car. Miss Froggart was upset and sobbing and a woman resident took her into her home to try and calm her.

Police found the winscreen wipers of the car had been bent off.Allen was arrested, said he tried to stop his friends leaving and said he remembered climbing on the car bonnet. He had 36 previous convictions.

Hilary Doherty, defending, said Allen accepted he had an alcohol problem. He also mixed with the wrong crowd and a lot of his offending was due to peer influence, the solicitor said.
