POLICE in West Cumbria have been dealing with reports of ASB on a residential estate.
Officers have been out on patrol at Hillcrest in Whitehaven dealing with antisocial behaviour.
These types of incidents have become a growing problem in the county over the past year, and Cumbria Police are doing what they can to tackle the issue.
Antisocial behaviour often involves teenagers and youths, parents are asked to speak to their children about what they are doing when they're out of the house.
A Cumbria Police spokesperson said: "This evening officers have been dealing with reports of ASB in the Hillcrest area.
"This behaviour is not acceptable, we will be conducting regular patrols in the area and anyone caught will be dealt with robustly.
"Please speak with your children about the impact that ASB can have on individuals and the wider community."
