Police have cracked down on anti-social behaviour in the Snape Hill area of Darfield.
Some youngsters have been partaking in underage drinking and carrying out acts of antisocial behaviour.
Members of the Safer Neighbourhood Team have been visiting the location every Friday evening from 5pm onwards to deter young people from using bus stops and shops doorways on the street as hang-outs and to deal with anyone who is found to be causing trouble or nuisance.
As well as regular foot patrols, letters have also been hand delivered by PCSOs to residents on Snape Hill Road and the surrounding streets, encouraging them to ring the SNT contact line with any information regarding incidents of antisocial behaviour.
PCSO Supervisor Alan Fowler said: “We want to reassure residents that we are aware that there is an issue in this area which is causing a lot of distress to some residents. We are dedicated to tackling this issue and we have and will continue to focus policing efforts around the Snape Hill Road area until the issue considerably improves.”
