A teenager who made repeated unwanted phone calls to another person has been given a restraining order and an overnight curfew.

West Cumbria Magistrates' Court in Workington heard that between November 1 last year and January 31 this year, Rebecca Stringer pursued a course of conduct which amounted to harassment of her victim.

Her behaviour included repeated unwanted phone calls, attending his home address and directing police to contact him unnecessarily.

Stringer, 19, of Grasmere Avenue, Workington, admitted harassment.

She was given a 60-day curfew from 7pm to 7am and banned from contacting her victim for two years.

She was also ordered to pay £85 costs and an £85 surcharge.
