An Edinburgh shopkeeper has lost all the staff at his store due to anti-social behaviour from teens who threw a plantain at his six-year-old son.
Charlie Siba, 49, owner of Amma Spices on Gorgie Road, says he had five workers quit forcing him to work 24/7 because nobody wants to risk their safety coming to work.
The shopkeeper has run his business for 12 years and previously owned a nearby corner shop too. But the dad has been left powerless to prevent the aggressive behaviour from teens and worries about the impact on the whole area.
