POLICE have vowed to catch youngsters who threw fireworks at them while out on patrol.
Posting on Facebook, Stockton Neighbourhood Police team wrote on Monday night: "B rota on duty here, and we've brought the rain.... Mind you, it didn't stop those lovely young people at Redhill Road shops throwing fireworks at us and into the Chinese Takeaway.
"Fortunately, and not being daft, we have you all on CCTV and we will be paying you a visit soon enough. It's probably worth letting your folks know as we will also be pursuing them for offences."
The officer added: "We tried to engage, we tried to educate but it's not worked, so we shall get you to Court.
"If one of your cherubs is involved in this and you're in rented accommodation, we will be starting proceedings to have you removed from the area.
"Have a lovely evening folks, be seeing you...."
