A MAN must complete unpaid work after admitting harassing a woman.
David Brown, 47, of White Horse Avenue, Halstead, made phone calls and sent texts despite both the victim and the police asking him not to contact her between March 24 and April 2.
At Colchester Magistrates’ Court on May 9, Brown was told to complete 40 hours unpaid work, pay a £85 victim surcharge and £85 prosecution costs.
He was given a restraining order.
