“Officers have spoken with local community representatives and we are also endeavouring to use any influence we have to encourage these anti-social elements to stop what they are doing.
“Police would also call upon parents or anyone else with influence on the youths involved in this behaviour to help by knowing where their children are, what they getting up to and reminding them of the consequences of their actions.
“Anyone with any information on recent incidents or with general concerns regarding anti-social should contact the local Neighbourhood Policing Team in Strand Road on 101,” he added.
