Following recent reports of deliberate damage caused to Stagecoach buses in the Owton Manor area of Hartlepool, police have been conducting extra patrols in the area and on Wednesday night the stopped four boys and issued them with AS13 forms.
These forms are handed to people suspected of being involved in antisocial behaviour and police review them to see if further action is required, including potential home visits by officers.
No further incidents were reported after the lads were taken home shortly after 6pm that night.
The boys are also to attend the police station to be placed on Acceptable Behaviour Contracts (ABCs) by Hartlepool’s Community Safety Team – a partnership of police, local authority and fire brigade.
And for those who live in Thirteen Group housing, they will be given tenancy warning letters from the Antisocial Behaviour Officer.
Cleveland Police will continue to work with our partners to clamp down on antisocial behaviour and crime.
If you have information, you can report online on the Cleveland Police website or by phoning 101. Always use 999 in an emergency.
If you don’t want to speak to police you can pass information anonymously to www.crimestoppers-uk.org or phone them on 0800 555 111.
