An angry mum has dragged her 14 and 15 year-old sons into Kaikohe police station, after realising they were involved in the mob rampage in the town.

Police say the boys have been referred to Youth Aid, for shoplifting and wilful damage.

Another young man was identified and spoken to by police yesterday, after a member of his whanau reported him.

Police say they've now spoken to a total of five youths about the disorder, which included a raid on a bottle store and an attempt to smash into a gas station.

They say further inquiries are being made and positive lines of inquiry are being followed.

They're also promising an increased police presence with a focus on youth activity in the Kaikohe area over the next few weekends.
