A HOUSE being repeatedly taken over by anti-social behaviour has been partially sealed by order of a magistrates' judge – after neighbours raised concerns to the police.
The order on a house in Cumbria Close, Bletchley, was granted on Thursday, August 11, by Wycombe Magistrates' Court under Section 80 of the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Disorder Act 2014.
Police applied for the order against the property following complaints of anti-social behaviour.

The partial closure prevents anyone other than the specified persons listed on the order from entering the property for a period of three months.
Anyone who enters the house will commit an offence and would be liable on summary conviction to imprisonment, a fine, or both.
Thames Valley Police shared a message on social media, which said: "Milton Keynes council and Thames Valley Police Milton Keynes have obtained a Closure Order for a property on Cumbria Close in Bletchley following drug related anti-social behaviour.
"For three months, only specified persons are allowed into the address. We take all reports of anti-social behaviour seriously. #P1755
