Five kids face charges after social media posts of anti-social behaviour in Cumbernauld sparked police action
Cumbernauld: So, here’s the scoop. Five kids have been charged after some pretty wild images of anti-social behaviour popped up on social media. The police say these images were shared all over the place, and they weren’t happy about it.
The community officers in Cumbernauld are stepping up their game. They’re doing “robust” patrols and plan to keep it up for a while as they look into what’s been going on. It seems like they’re taking this pretty seriously, especially with the mention of weapons.
Among those charged are three boys aged 13, one 14, and a 12-year-old. It’s a bit shocking to see such young kids getting into trouble like this, right?
