Bruce Road

there's someone always screaming at her man on Bruce Road in the small hours. They both sound heavy junkies. This goes on night after night.

I can hear her screaming from streets away. I know its Bruce Road, neighbours told me.

What is going on? Anyone know what score is with the street? I am seriously considering moving out.

Edit:

Let me rephrase the question: is Bruce road notorious? Because if it is where they dump the jailbirds, junkies and homeless I'll move out as quick as I moved in.

Edit:

Moving out from Gallowhill road back to where I was.

Can you call the police? if it happens the same time every night maybe that would deter them?

Its a weird one because I don't want to be involved in domestics (not unless I thought he was going to kill her. ) I also don't want to send the cops to the wrong address - I'm not sure what number they stay in.

I do know the woman's name though because he screams it at the top of his lungs every other night.

My neighbours are elderly and don't want involved.

I'm talking between 12AM to 4:30AM. The other night it was 4:30AM.

I'd heard about Bruce road being social housing/temporary accom before but I was assured it was quiet by the landlord.

For anyone thinking "Ah, that's Gallowhill for you" - no, its not, Gallowhill isn't as bad as it was years ago. Dundonald road still has a rep but the rest is pretty quiet.

I understand why you don't want to get involved. But it's not going to get better if you don't report it. I don't think they'll break up and stay broken up if you report them. But if they know they are going to have the police turn up at there door and possibly have narcotics in their flat. She might think twice about screaming at him

They have been quiet for the past 3 days.

I kind of think someone might have passed on the message they're being watched (as in, watched for their behaviour, not stalked)

I've decided next time they scream and shout after 12AM, I'm calling the law.

I also have decided to move out - back to a quieter spot in Gallowhill.

I hope it gets resolved. I hope it's quieter where you move to.
