Laxey child crime spate sparks warning from police

Police are urging parents to make sure they know where their children are after problems in Laxey at the weekend.

Officers say they were called to multiple incidents involving antisocial behaviour, provoking behaviour and criminal damage.

They say the activities place pressure on the emergency services, taking resources away from other areas.

And the Northern Neighbourhood Policing Team says it will deal with any offences robustly.
