Pill anti-social behaviour has 'gone past a joke'

Drinking alcohol in the street and people congregating in groups could be banned in a part of Newport recently blighted by large-scale disorder.

The council and police want to curb anti-social behaviour in Pill, where youths recently targeted police with fireworks during a "riot".

Anyone caught breaching the order could face a fine or prosecution.

Residents and traders talk about the problems and give their views on whether a ban will work.
