Anti-social behaviour unacceptable

Acting Commander Charlie CarverNorth Coast Times

There is a concerning trend among younger adults to drink for the sole purpose of getting drunk.

This usually leads to poor decision making that can affect their life, or the life of others.

Alcohol-related incidents tie up vital community resources, not just police, but other emergency services and hospital emergency rooms.

While these resources will always be there to help those in need, it is a shame to see such critical services being diverted to so many alcohol related incidents that could have been avoided.

Alcohol fuelled anti-social behaviour is not acceptable.
