Anti Social Behaviour: Door kicking at night

Anti Social Behaviour: Door kicking at night

Staffordshire Police would like to remind young people and parents/carers of the importance of respecting others and keeping our community safe.

We have received concerns about young people kicking or booting residents' doors during the evenings, causing alarm, distress and unnecessary worry to those living in the area.

This behaviour is not a harmless prank. It can leave residents, particularly the elderly, vulnerable people and families with young children feeling frightened and unsafe in their own homes.

We ask parents and carers to speak with their children about the consequences of their actions and to ensure they understand that this type of behaviour is unacceptable. Those involved may be putting themselves at risk of Police intervention and further consequences. 

Please help us by:

If you witness this behaviour or have information that could help identify those responsible, please report it to Staffordshire Police. In an amergency, or if a crime is in progress and immediate assistance is required, call 999. For non emergencies, call 101 or report online.

Lets work together to keep Staffordshire a safe, respectful and peaceful place for everyone.

Thank you for your cooperation and support.
