The three juveniles were taken back home and given Anti-Social Behaviour warnings.

Inspector Paul Riley of Bradford East Neighbourhood Policing team said: "This is great work by my team, and it great to see we are seeing positive results in this area.

"Trojan bus patrols are highly effective for us in being able to provide reassurance to residents and catch those committing anti-social behaviour offences.

"I hope this sends a clear message to young people involved in anti-social behaviour that it will not be tolerated, and we will deal with those caught breaking the law.

"We would continue to appeal to local residents to report any anti-social behaviour incidents to us, by calling 101 or using the contact us options at www.westyorkshire.police.uk/contactus’
