Two 12-year-old boys have been
reported for anti-social behaviour by police following a crackdown on
young yobs in the Stoke Heath area of Coventry.
The youngsters were picked up
during a five-hour operation in Burlington Road, which started at 5pm
yesterday.
Police mounted the crusade
following complaints of missiles being thrown off the footbridge
crossing Phoenix Way.
There have also been a number of
incidents of minor damage being caused to cars in the area.
A group of children aged between
nine and 15 is thought to be involved.
Sgt Graham Cramp said the
operations would continue.
He added:
“Two 12-year-old boys have
been reported for public order offences and a certain amount of
intelligence was obtained that might lead to further arrests.
“I
would urge residents who have any information about anti-social
behaviour to call police on 024 7653 9040.”
