There's an off-licence a minute walk away so they're boozing shouting and generally doing what you would expect of wasters.there was even the obligatory pair of runners over a power cable-just like the wire!

Any suggestions

There is a frequency only teenagers can hear and it drives them mad so they leave the area. As far as I remember they use it in Shopping Centres in England.
