A woman has been jailed after she breached a Criminal Behaviour Order and stole items from a shop in Aldershot.

Abbie Folkes, 32, of East Street, Farnham, stole meat products worth £104.72 from Lidl in the Wellington Centre on Saturday 17 May.

She also breached a CBO, which banned her from entering the town until December 2028.

She pleaded guilty to theft from a shop and breaching a CBO and was jailed for 16 weeks at Basingstoke Magistrates Court on Thursday 19 June.

PS Rob Tiller, from the Aldershot Neighbourhood Policing Team, said: “We know the actions of Abbie Folkes have had a huge impact on businesses, shop workers and the wider community.

“A Criminal Behaviour Order banned her from entering Aldershot for five years, but she brazenly ignored this and continued to visit the area to commit crime.

“We take all reports of shoplifting extremely seriously and I hope this result reassures the local community that we will do all we can to put offenders before the courts.”
