MAN JAILED FOR RACIAL ABUSE AND SEXUAL COMMENTS IN WORKSOP
A man who made sexual comments to women, racially abused a shop manager and made 'tongue gestures' to another woman, has been incarcerated.Darron Bowles engaged in repeated inappropriate remarks to shop staff in Worksop between August 30 and September 8.
The 51-year-old was detained by Nottinghamshire Police after reports of lewd and hostile behavior in Worksop on September 10.
During his arrest, Bowles was abusive towards officers, spat at one, and urinated in his cell.
He faced multiple charges and admitted to four counts of using threatening, abusive, or insulting words or behavior, as well as additional counts of racially aggravated public order, criminal damage, and assaulting an emergency worker.
Moreover, Bowles was found in breach of a suspended sentence order.
He was sentenced to seven months and two weeks imprisonment at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court on Thursday, September 12.
PC Kerry Eames stated: “Bowles’ persistent disgusting behaviour caused significant distress and alarm to innocent women just going about their normal working days.
They were also made to feel threatened and intimidated by his torrent of verbal abuse and highly inappropriate sexualised gestures.
No-one deserves to be treated in this way and we simply will not tolerate this sort of vile and offensive behaviour in our communities."
