    Residents in Charing Cross - on the outskirts of Christchurch near Kirwee - have complained of a large gathering of boy racers over the weekend


    A person on social media says more than 80 people were in a group doing burnouts, with some throwing bottles at truck drivers.

    They say they felt scared and intimidated as they were going to work.

    A police spokesperson says staff monitored the gathering and are continuing to make enquiries.
