Residents and police voice their disgust after night of drunken debauchery despite lockdown guidelines not having been fully lifted. Amongst the drunken behaviour which scarred the Barbican's reputation last night, were couples having sex in public, people urinating and even defecating in alleyways and piles of rubbish - including used tampons and used condoms - being left for residents to encounter. Police have told Plymouth Live they were left appalled at the behaviour of more than people - considered a conservative estimate - who crowded the cobbled streets yesterday evening and night. Some of the booze which flowed came from nearby pubs who were offering 'takeaway' alcohol, but police say others had clearly brought their own from supermarkets, stores and their homes. The area of the Barbican is already subject to a Public Space Protection Order, which effectively bans drinking of booze outside of designated areas. The order makes it an offence for any person to refuse to stop drinking alcohol or hand over any bottles or cans which are believed to contain alcohol when required to do so by a police officer.
