Anti-social behaviour policy needs to change
THE police’s policy regarding anti-social behaviour in St Helens needs to change.
For a short period, say three months, there should be a zero policy on all unaccompanied teens in groups of more than two.
The town centre from Parr Street to Asda, from Corporation Street to the link road, should be a strict no-go zone for this age group and anyone under 18.
Anyone seen in a group of over two, in the first instance, in that area, between 6pm and 6am should be picked up by the police, taken home and issued with a £100 fixed penalty notice and their parents spoken to.
And if they do it again, they should fined £500 and their parents prosecuted.
