'Balaclava Gang' that 'run' quiet area of Merseyside

A gang of balaclava-clad yobs have descended on a quiet area of Merseyside in recent months.

People living on Leominster Road and Greenheys Road in Liscard are scared to leave their own homes with the gang of 10-15 patrolling the roads and causing havoc. Most recently the gang are believed to have targeted a number of cars in the area according to people living on the roads.

Merseyside Police confirmed that a group of six males were seen in the area between 2am and 3am yesterday at the time where was damage done to six cars in the area. High visibility patrols have been stepped up in the area since but one man told the ECHO about the constant antisocial behaviour that has plagued the area over the last 12 months.
