POLICE are attempting to identify a group of youths who have been repeatedly targeting an address in Spennymoor.

Officers were called following a number of knock and run incidents and threats to damage the property on Jackson Street between October 6 and October 10.

The group of boys and girls are all described as wearing hoodies.

PC Neal Jones from Bishop Auckland response team said: “We are appealing to the public to get some descriptions to potentially identify the youths involved.

“The youths are persistently knocking on the victim’s door and making threats which is causing the victim to feel trapped in their own home, it's having a huge impact on their normal life.”

Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101 quoting incident number 411 of October 10.
