“We as a police service, we as parents, we as brothers and sisters, we as members of the community do not want this. Ourselves and our colleagues in the NHS don’t want to have to respond to a seriously injured child.
“Parents/guardians, please have a word with the youths you are responsible for. This behaviour is completely unacceptable.”
