A MAN from Parkeston has been fined after admitting to stalking a woman.

Bradley Hambling, 37, of Garland Road, admitted a charge of stalking without fear, alarm or distress when he appeared at Ipswich Court House.

The court heard he pursued a course of conduct that amounted to stalking in Ipswich between September and December last year.

He continually messaged the woman and turned up at her address to try to talk to her despite knowing she didn't want any contact with him.

Hambling was fined £184 and was ordered to pay costs of £105 as well as a £34 surcharge to fund victim services.
