Young motorists who have been causing a nuisance in a Norfolk village could have their cars seized by police.
Officers are launching a crackdown in Mundford, near Thetford, after local people complained about drivers gathering in St Leonards Street and near the village shop.
Residents claim they are creating noise nuisance, including playing loud music from their vehicles.
Officers have increased patrols in the area and will be issuing warning notices to drivers if they cause a nuisance with their vehicles.
If officers issue a second warning within a 12-month period then the vehicle will be seized.
