Strict Action Against Young kids causing havoc within Dorset county

The Issue

There are 10 young lads who creates havoc within canford heath area since last 3 to 4 years. I have been living in canford heath area since 2014, every now n then these young kids have damaged peoples cars, broke down Asda superstore, cut the huge tree opposite Iceland, had a fight with bus driver, broke the bus station glass one night, spitted old man, last month stole the beer cans from Co-OP store from oakdale n when the man working there protested then they beat him badly.
The complaints list is endless. I dont feel safe anymore to live in this area. The residents have been lodging complaints to police but they are not capable to take any action against the kids as the law doesn't allow them. I think this is the reason the kids are not scared of legal entities and are behaving badly.
The kids behaviours affecting old people more because they are old and weak and cannot fight back.

The laws against such behaviour should be amended to address the issues asap.
I m sure there must be more than 25 complaints launched against the kids trouble.

The petition is filed for three main reasons-

- to stop whatever is happening immediately 

- to make them realise the consequences of their actions on society and their own lives

- to prevent them happening in future 

I live in canford heath and been witnessing this behaviour since last 4 years, I go to work during day time but always living in the tension of what these lads must have done new thing to trouble the residents. The kids behaviour is gone too far nowadays that is affecting people living in this area physically n mentally.
