YOUR description of the yobs who attacked Andrew Hill (Citizen, February 6 ) was only mildly less useful than the usual descriptions provided of local criminals.

We are told only that they are 'described as youths, aged 15 to 18'. What we need are photos or drawings of these and other criminals.

The Citizen could play a valuable role in tackling crime if it were to provide images of suspects. It would also leave criminals with a choice: stay at home or risk being spotted and identified.

As things are, however, lots of your readers will probably see the yobs who attacked Andrew Hill out and about in the local area but will be none the wiser about who they are.

Angry citizen,

Lancaster
