<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"When it comes to dishing out Asbos, the majority of cases will see them served for things like playing music into the small hours of the night, keeping a loud or disorderly pet and even completing the house work too late at night. <\/p>\n
However, one man has now been given one of the weirder antisocial behaviour orders you'll ever have heard of – it forbids him from falling over in public. It might seem like an odd behaviour to ban, but 51-year old Andrew Davies has apparently been making quite a nuisance of himself over the past few years with his habit. <\/p>\n
Mr Davies has a strange tendency to lie down in the street and feign injury, duping drivers and passing pedestrians into calling an ambulance for him. His attention seeking stunts have put Mr Davies more in the spotlight than he might have hoped, though, with his new banning order putting him in danger of being pulled in front of the courts if he is found lying down anywhere in public in England and Wales. <\/p>\n
"Davies came to police attention initially by making time-wasting calls to the emergency services. On most occasions he would be intoxicated," said PC Chris Allman, of Thames Valley Police.<\/p>\n
"When dealt with by a police and council joint team he gave away his telephone to stop the temptation. However he then took to pretending to fall in the street near his home as a way of attracting attention to himself."<\/p>\n
Mr Davies has apparently taken to falling in one area until people become familiar with his act, at which point he merely moves on to a new place and starts all over again. Magistrates in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, have banned him from falling in public for two years, as well as forbidding him from being drunk in public and calling the emergency services unless it's a genuine emergency. <\/p>\n
This is hardly the strangest Asbo we've ever seen though. Throughout the years, the orders have been served to a 60-year old man who was banned from dressing as a schoolgirl, a woman who was singing a Gary Glitter song too loudly in the bath and a gentleman who managed to impersonate a qualified barrister in a number of court cases. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
