Town once voted 'most desirable' in UK now overrun by teen yobs leaving locals terrified

Residents of a UK town that was once voted the 'one of the most desirable' places to live say the area has now become a no-go zone, with children as young as 10 running amok in the streets.

Anti-social gangs of children are running riot in the town centre of Caldicot, in Monmouthshire, Wales. Their behaviour has reportedly become such a menace that Gwent Police have been forced to put out dispersal orders.

The system runs from the town centre to surrounding residential streets and has been in force for the past two weeks. It was introduced to stop youths from lingering in the city, and gives cops extra powers to move kids on and arrest them if they return.
