Heanor pensioner scared to live in town as 'kids are taking control'

A pensioner from Heanor has said she is 'scared' to live in the town as 'kids and taking control'. Marie Shelvey (not her real name) claimed nothing has been done about the incidents she has informed the police about.

Marie believes this is because the occurrences are not viewed as being serious enough. She decided to install a video camera on her home to record evidence of the behaviour.

Derbyshire Live reports the film shows a group of youngsters walking by her garden fence and kicking and slamming into it. She said: “It’s all the time, every other night. It’s getting me down and making me ill. I can’t sleep as I'm waiting for that every night. It scares me.”
