Fined £160 for spitting in the street:

Yobs who spit in public can now be prosecuted for littering after a council won a landmark legal ruling.
In a test case, two men failed in their challenge of a local authority policy to impose £80 on-the-spot fines on them.
Magistrates upheld the council's decision that spitting could be prosecuted under anti-litter legislation – giving a green light for other councils to follow suit.
The men were ordered to pay £300 each including double their original fines and legal costs.
The landmark case means Waltham Forest in North East London has become the first council in the country to successfully prosecute for spitting in public.
The authority has vowed to eradicate the habit as 'disgusting and unacceptable' after receiving complaints from residents who said it was anti-social.
