Sending a malicious message landed a Workington teenager with a curfew order.

Rachel Orme, 19, of Bolton Street, appeared at West Cumbria Magistrates Court in the town on Monday.

The court heard that she had sent a false electronic message on August 24 to cause annoyance, inconvenience or needless anxiety.

She admitted the offence and was given a four-week curfew from 7pm to 7am.

Magistrates also ordered that she must pay £85 in costs along with a surcharge of £95.
