Anti-social youths spark dispersal order in town
A dispersal order has been put in place in a town after groups of youths were found to be "intimidating, threatening and frightening people". The order in Maghull on Merseyside, which runs until 23:00 BST and includes the town's main parks, follows recent incidents of antisocial behaviour as seen at Maghull Cricket Club. Young people were fighting on the cricket field - some armed with hammers - during a junior coaching session last month. Sefton Neighbourhood Inspector Kenneth Sumner said the dispersal order was to "make sure that everyone can feel safe in Sefton". The order gives police and police community support traffic officers the power to order people to leave an area if they are suspected of committing, or being likely to commit, a criminal offence or anti-social behaviour. Maghull Cricket Club has made about 25 police reports since July last year about people harassing players, setting off fireworks and vandalising its equipment. It is now seeking funding to help with the costs of building a large fence. Insp Sumner said: "We will not tolerate groups intimidating, threatening and frightening people visiting, living and working in the Maghull area, or anywhere across Merseyside." He said many groups of young people had "stayed out of trouble, socialising with friends", but "some have been involved in anti-social behaviour". The issue was "a top priority" and the force was working with local businesses and the council and examining CCTV to identify suspects, he added. Under the legislation officers have the power to seize any item including vehicles and it is an offence for anyone directed to leave the area to return.
