Laaities lured

LAAITIES barely tall enough to see over a car bonnet are being pulled into gang life in Delft - some as young as nine are sent to steal and surrender their loot to underworld leiers.

And now, in a fast-spreading new trend, the kids who call themselves the Terrible Hooker Boys are swarming delivery vans, ripping open doors and making off with packages in seconds.

They are so brazen that they are even stripping the Centre for Community Development in The Hague and using it as their “gang den”.

This comes as the Mother City reels from a wave of bendegeweld that has left at least six children shot in the past week. Four have died.

Local Delft Ward 13 councillor Michelle Adonis said things were now “out of hand”, with gangs running amok.
