Teesside ASBO menace Heath Randall (pictured) has been locked up for two years for breaching his banning order.
The 18-year-old, of Eltisley Green, Pallister Park, in Middlesbrough, appeared at Teesside Crown Court where he admitted his eighth breach of an anti-social behaviour order (ASBO) imposed in April last year.
Randall also admitted burgling a bedsit at a hostel in Gribdale Road, Middlesbrough, for which he was also given two years in a young offenders' institution - the sentence to run concurrently.
Prosecutor Louise Reevell said the burglary on September 24 was in itself a breach of the ASBO which had banned Randall from trespassing on other people's property.
Items worth £370 which he had taken were recovered but a hi-fi system had suffered £150 of damage and there was damage to the flat door.
Defence barrister Tom Mitchell said Randall's record showed little significant offending beyond his breaches of the order which were generally for relatively trivial matters.
He added: "There is some good in him which has been shown by a degree of contrition after this latest case."
Judge Michael Taylor told Randall: "People who go into other people's property can expect little sympathy."
The original order, imposed last year, banned Randall from a large area of Pallister Park and placed stiff restrictions on his behaviour.
At the time he was still a juvenile and a court declined to lift restrictions on the publication of his identity. Now he is 18 those restrictions no longer apply.
The order, and a similar ASBO on another youth, followed a catalogue of complaints by Pallister Park residents who claimed the pair with others had made up a gang which had terrorised a large part of the estate.
Barry Coppinger, Middlesbrough Council's executive member for community safety, welcomed the two-year term for Randall, saying: "This shows the courts are taking breaches of ASBOs very seriously."
