Anti-social arrest threat over snowball throwing
Snowball throwing can count as anti-social behaviour
Youngsters in County Durham have been warned that throwing snowballs could result in them being arrested.
Crook Neighbourhood Beat Team said it was aware that people would want to have fun during the snowy weather.
But it said snowballs should not be thrown at moving vehicles, at homes, or at people who did not want to be involved in a game.
It added that anyone doing so would run the risk of being arrested for anti-social behaviour.
