Man in Wakefield city centre fined and warned of 'dangers of urinating on electrical boxes'

Wakefield Central neighbourhood polciing team said the fact was part of a crackdown on antisocial behaviour in the city centre.

A spokesman said: "A male was found urinating in Wakefield City Centre by PCSOs yesterday. Wakefield City Centre is subject to a public spaces protection order, prohibiting various acts, including urinating. The order aims to eliminate antisocial acts within the area.

"The male was advised of this before being given a £100 fine and was educated on the proper use of a toilet should he need to use one in the future, along with the dangers of urinating on electrical boxes."
