“It’s only a matter of time before someone is seriously injured. The message is just not getting through to those involved.
“If you know anything about this activity please contact any police officer from Newtownabbey.
“If you’re out with a group of friends and someone suggests stoning a bus or train speak up, it’s not on. It’s just plain stupid.”
