According to police, local business owners and workers had reported being subjected to “nuisance behaviour, abuse, and threats”.

Officers then attended her home and issued her with a Community Resolution, which banned her from the business.

She was also issued with a Community Protection Warning (CPW), stating that any further anti-social behaviour could result in further police action.

A spokesperson for Thames Valley Police said: “Let’s be clear, this behaviour is completely unacceptable.

“Our local businesses and their staff deserve to work in a safe environment. No one should have to tolerate intimidation, abuse, or threatening behaviour while simply doing their job.”
