Thames Valley Police"The people of North Ascot take great pride in their homes and surroundings, and this spate of graffiti had a huge impact on the community. What young people often don't realise is that graffiti blights an area and can increase the fear of crime, particularly amongst elderly residents. The sanctions we have taken against the boys send out a clear message that I will not tolerate graffiti and other acts of vandalism in the North Ascot area. After all the hard work involved in cleaning up the damage, I hope the youngsters understand the consequences of their actions and that this sort of thing will not happen again."
