A TEENAGER has been given a six-month detention order for a spate of disorder and vandalism offences.

The 16-year-old from Chesham, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was described as a “repeat offender” by police.

He will serve half of his sentence in a youth offenders' institute and the remaining three months on licence.

Chief Inspector Ian Hunter said: “He was given numerous opportunities to change his ways and he decided not to.

“We support the court with this sentence and we hope it will end his criminality.”
