Anti-social behaviour may end in court

Yesterday police confirmed that a number of petrol bombs were thrown in the Westland Street area and at the City Walls. One car has been set alight after a petrol bomb was thrown at it in the Fahan Street area.

No injuries have been reported at this stage.

Police have appealed to parents to ensure that they know where their children are and what they are doing.

Any young people involved in this type of activity can expect to face the consequences of their actions - which can range from being taken into custody, taken home to parents and indeed being placed before the courts on criminal charges.
