POLICE in Elsecar have responded to reports of antisocial behaviour by arresting a 14-year-old boy and increasing police patrols.
Police Community Support Officers have been patrolling Welland Crescent in Elsecar for the past two weeks and will continue to do so over the coming weeks in an effort to tackle an ongoing problem.
Officers have been responding to calls from residents of gangs of youths throwing stones and eggs, kicking down gates and shouting abuse.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
