We had issues in early lockdowns with kids doing some of the same stuff and looking for reactions from people, some of my neighbours stuck with it and finally got the police to get involved. They were essentially throwing bricks into people back gardens and trying to break into buildings that were being developed/ vacant so this may have compelled the police to do something. We had a few people saying its kids being kids, but it was frightening for some neighbours. My wife didn't want to take the dog out for a walk.

I can only sympathise with you and the police's lack of action. I think it does show that the reactions from the police was quite different here, perhaps a different area with differing priorities based on what is going on in the area (we had an attempted break in and they hunted the guy down with dogs one night). IMO the council/govt/police do not do enough to tackle this behaviour in any constructive way. I was reading that the bus station in Killie keeps having to be closed due to kids terrorising the place! Hope you enjoy your new place!
