Monsters on mopeds

-

Moped crime – where robbers terrorise pedestrian­s – has dropped by 52% after a 12-strong gang were arrested.

Nine of the crooks had 383 conviction­s between them.

Brothers John, 24, and Isaac McFadyen, 19, threatened one woman, demanding she hand over jewellery or they would snatch and hurt her three-year-old son.

And yet the McFadyen monsters have been sentenced to just 32-months each.

Most likely they’ll serve just half that. How can that be right? I await moped crime soaring again in about a year from now…
