Derry/Londonderry Sinn Féin Councillor, Sandra Duffy has said that a small group of young people involved in a catalogue of anti-community activity this week cannot hold the entire community to ransom.
She's told Q Radio that residents are extremely fed up and concerned, while homes are being attacked, as well as Translink buses and emergency services:
Councillor Duffy also explained that the young people involved are very young, around the ages of 10 and 11.
She says it's extremely concerning, therefore elected representatives, residents and community groups will now be turning to their statutory partners for help.
That includes the PSNI, the Housing Executive and Social Services.
The Councillor is reaching out to parents to speak to their young children and explain to them, the dangers they are bringing to the community:
‘Intensive work’ continuing to agree multi-year budget for Northern Ireland
Strength of evidence against man charged with murdering Lyra McKee questioned
Teenage boy arrested over cyber attack on schools’ IT system
