Parents have been asked by police if they know where their children are after a spate of reported assaults, criminal damage and hate incidents taking place in Mansfield.
Nottinghamshire Police asked “do you really know where your children are in the evening?” in an appeal on Wednesday (February 2).
The force said there had been problems with groups of teenagers causing issues of anti-social behaviour in the town centre for "several months", but said it had escalated in the last few weeks.
