Police in Douglas are trying to identify individuals who are regularly playing knock-a-door-run, causing stress to residents.

A spokesman said that the childhood game can cause an enormous amount of stress and upset to victims who are repeatedly targeted by this sort of anti-social behaviour.

The constabulary is appealing to members of the community to help identify the people who are regularly visiting the area of Ash Road in Pulrose and targeting nearby houses.

CCTV images can be viewed on our website, and anyone with information is asked to contact Police Headquarters.
