We have a bunch around here like that too - the 'Kent Street Gang'. They're a group of school-aged 'denizens' from the next street over who like to do silly things with other peoples' property and make a lot of noise in the process to impress their various female hangers-on. It's easy as hell to intimidate them, though... I play the bad cop (I reckon my haircut and Clint Eastwood stare helps) and Sally plays the good cop (they wouldn't mess with her even if they wanted to, because they know she could beat the crap out of any of them).
They pretty much leave us alone.
Damned shame this city has come to this, though... it wasn't this way when I grew up. Time to move...
