Parents have condemned the "disgusting behaviour" of teenagers reported to have "exposed" themselves to young children.
Writing on the Halton Homewatch page on Facebook, the mum of one of the youngsters said the offending youths also said "vile, disgusting things" during the incident in Runcorn on Thursday evening. She said her daughter, who was under the age of 10, had been left "traumatised", adding that the parents of whoever was responsible need to "have a word" to "teach your kids about appropriate behaviour".
Cheshire Police told the ECHO officers were called to The Glen in Palacefields, Runcorn, at 7.52pm following a report that teenagers had "exposed their bottoms to young children". They then carried out a search but no suspects were identified.
