   That address is 275 E. Avondale

 So if they know who these kids are why aren't the police doing something about it? It's obvious these kids keep showing up in the neighborhood and are starting the trouble. They must be going to someones house-I don't think they are just picking that street to walk down on every-day--Whose house are they going to when they are just hanging out????

  Besides talking to the landlords father , today I alerted Lt. Kelty commander of the Juvenile Div. about the actions that are occurring at that address.

Yes -  ICU Block Watch. It is relatively new, however, their leadership team is pretty proactive. In fact, their president - Victoria Allen - was the one who has called in several of these incidents. She states the fighting has been a result of kids walking the streets who are picking fights with random folks sitting on their porches during the day. That's all she knows at present.

Park a squad car in the middle of that intersection from dusk till dawn.

Does this neighborhood have a block watch?  Maybe the block watch could get the camera and conduct the surveillance.

Boardman police used the  night vision goggles for some break-ins up in the Newport area..They worked as far as seeing the young-ins but they did not catch them...So maybe YPD can borrow Boardmans and give it another shot (no pun intended)..If this is on-going with Rush-Avondale --here's a thought maybe Chief Hughes should have them patrol the area a bit more...

I just turned on the scanner at 9:00 p.m. and the police were being sent to Rush Blvd. and Avondale again.  The first car on the scene reported that 30-40 people were involved in the fight.  Multiple cars had to respond.

This is out of hand.  The YPD has to set up cameras to document this criminal act.
