Pair of youths arrested for assaulting police officers – after reports of 15 juveniles causing issues at shop in Derbyshire town
A pair of juveniles were arrested in a Derbyshire town yesterday – amid reports of a large gang of youths causing issues for a shop owner.
Officers from the Clay Cross Safer Neighbourhood Team arrested two young people in the town last night.
An SNT spokesperson said: “Do you know who your child is with and what they are doing? A group of about 15 juveniles were causing issues at a shop in Clay Cross. Criminal matters were reported.
“The group refused to leave when asked by staff and police were called out to the group on a few occasions, as they kept returning.
“Two of the group were arrested for assaulting police officers and the investigation is ongoing.
“A custody cell is not the place for a juvenile, so please make sure you know where your children are, who they are with and what they are doing.”
