Residents are dreading the return of summer
On a windy Thursday morning, the streets of Blackpool's South Shore are quiet and peaceful. But locals say it won't be long before that changes.
Jackie and Martin Jones have owned Jackie's Shop on the corner of Waterloo Road and Moore Street for nearly a year. Martin recalls how just three weeks after they moved in to the shop, a group of teens attacked the store and broke hundreds of pounds of stock. Martin added that the kids are brazen, openly announcing that they're just going to take something from the shop because they can.
They say the kids who terrorise the street are only high school age, with the oldest being around 16. The pair claim that it's this child that entices the younger ones, whom are as young as 11 or 12 to get involved in the behaviour. "Every time I go on social media there's something else that they've done. The businesses are being targeted, as are the residents. They've had enough."
