Sgt. George said the OPP have
been trying to concentrate more
patrols in Brussels since the
recent vandalism incidents here.
He said though that the latest
problem, of young kids running
along the roofs, of downtown
buildings was "basically a parent

the practise was dangerous, not
criminal.
Parents have the right to
discipline their kids, while the
police can't do anything in this
case. He said one officer who took
youngsters who were found Ott a
building's roof home, felt that the
parents weren't going to do any
disciplining
The sergeant commented that
sometimes people expect the
police to do things that aren't
really their job.
