YOUTHS could be arrested if they continue to get involved in anti-social behaviour, police have warned.

Police officers in Davenham and Moulton have taken action following a spate of anti-social incidents.

A number of issues were reported to the local police team, including criminal damage, shoplifting and knock-and-run incidents.

CCTV of the incidents was handed over to police and, with help from partners, police have managed to identify all of those involved.

PCSO Lee Robertson and PC Tom Lock have conducted house visits and spoken to the youths and their parents.

Each of the youths has been handed a community resolution order and warned that further issues will result in them being arrested and having to attend Northwich Police Station for an interview under caution.

A spokesperson for the force said: “Please be assured anti-social behaviour will not be tolerated within our community and patrols will increase in those areas that have had previous issues.”
