The teen yobs had caused more than £500 damage to her gate
A gran was told off by police after telling officers she would 'wring the necks' of teenagers who smashed her garden gate if she saw them again. Gillian Mears, 70, says she 'just saw red' and chased a group of teenagers who damaged her back gate at her house in Kessingland, Suffolk.
She said: "I just saw red and lost the plot in a fit of rage and took to chasing the gang of youths down the street. Our neighbours came out of their houses to try and help me catch them, which was really nice. Mrs Mears and husband John then had to fork out a large sum of money to have the gate repaired after the April 20 attack, only for the vandals to return again. The youths later returned, Mr Mears, who is disabled, went to confront the gang who were damaging their property but fell over and hurt himself.
The couple also added they are "living in fear" that the group will return again. Mrs Mears said: "Those evil kids just laughing at me and my husband makes me feel sick and full of despair with the next generation, I have no hope, their parents should be ashamed.
