Officers will hand out the rock sweets, which bear the messages ‘Quiet Please’ and ‘Shush’ to drinkers
Police have bought 10,000 sweets to hand out to students to remind them to be quiet when they come home from a night out.
Officers will hand the rock sweets, which bear the messages ‘Quiet Please’ and ‘Shush’, to drinkers in Durham.
These will be reserved for busy nights in the city and handed out when officers feel revellers need a reminder to keep the noise down as they make their way home.
The idea follows complaints about rowdy students in residential areas.
Late-night noise is a genuine issue for a number of our residents and we hope that this initiative will make a difference.
'It also provides another way for our officers to engage with students and other revellers when they are out on the town.'

Sugar just makes you higher after drinking shouldn't they be handing out bread sticks or something even fruit. I think that's so friendly they should do that with rioters.
Fight the power!! Lol
