Anti Social Behaviour
Anti-social behaviour can cause misery to its victims and can also ruin the future for its perpetrators. Criminal damage, graffiti, drunkenness, public order, assaults, thefts, arsons etc are all offences that local youths have been arrested for recently.
The majority of them are committed by members of large groups who begin by committing low level anti social behaviour (just having a laugh) that escalates.
If you want to discuss any concerns please contact your local neighbourhood policing team or attend the next PACT (Police and communities together) meeting in your area. Details can be found on Durham Constabulary’s website or telephone 0345 6060365
Report it
If you are harassed or victimised, if anti-social behaviour is affecting your quality of life, or making you fear for your safety or the safety of others, contact your local anti-social behaviour team, neighbourhood policing team or local police station directly and file a complaint. If it's an emergency, or you witness a serious crime, call 999 immediately.
