Crime fears: anti-social behaviour tops list

JUVENILE delinquency and anti-social behaviour are viewed more seriously in Limerick than the widely publicised gangland feud, a survey on attitudes to crime revealed yesterday.

The findings of the survey, which was organised by Fine Gael's Michael Noonan, are based on 865 detailed responses to a questionnaire distributed to 20,000 homes in the city.

Mr Noonan said the response rate of 4.6% meant it was higher than the 3% normally returned in such surveys.
