A SALISBURY man who was abusive and threatening to supermarket staff has been given a 12-month community order and fined. Benjamin Jordan-Venning, of Gainsborough Close, admitted making threats to Tesco workers, as well as criminal damage and a section 5 public order offence. He appeared at Salisbury magistrates’ court for sentencing on Thursday, December 10. Prosecutor David Fosler said the store staff had felt threatened on November 27 of last year and the two victims, Sabrina Holloway and Fayez Rahman, had been at work at Tesco at the time. He said Jordan-Venning had been sitting outside when Mr Rahman had asked him if he could move on following complaints from shoppers, to which Jordan-Venning replied “come on let’s have a fight” and followed him back to the store. The defendant’s foul language continued in the shop. He also made threats by saying “I will shank you” and “smash your head in”. He also said “I’m going to cut you just you wait”.
