Police investigating alleged anti-social behaviour at a Belfast roundabout say they have arrested three male youths.

Details of the Incident
Shortly after 6:50pm this evening, Monday March 10, it was reported that a number of youths had gathered in the Broadway area and were throwing stones and bottles at each other. Officers say they attended and the youths dispersed upon arrival of police.

Arrest of Suspects
PSNI Inspector Adams added: 'The males, aged 16, 15 and 14 years old were arrested on suspicion of riotous behaviour. All three remain in custody at this time. We understand the concerns of local residents and the wider public regarding ongoing anti-social behaviour in the Broadway area. Our officers are committed to working alongside partner agencies, local representatives, and the community to address the problem.'

Appeal to Parents and Guardians
'However, I also urge parents and guardians to speak with their children about their behaviour. Some young people are behaving recklessly, dangerously, and in some instances criminally around Broadway roundabout with little regard for other members of the public and local residents. We all have a responsibility to help make where we live safer for everyone.
