Yobs who have terrorised Wigan's streets are today named and shamed.
In what police describe as a "landmark case," Anti-social Behaviour Orders have been handed out to nine youths.
They include boys and girls as young as 12 who have run amok in Beech Hill bringing fear to residents.
Now the thugs have been banned from large parts of the neighbourhood.
Insp Glenn Jones of GMP's Wigan Neighbourhood Policing Team said: "This is a landmark case and sends out the message that all of us – community safety agencies and decent people in local communities – can work together to combat crime and anti-social behaviour."
