In the last five years, Wiltshire's police have seen a 63% increase in offences committed by women, with this female crime wave challenging traditional perceptions of differences between men and women. In this episode, the police face extraordinary levels of violence and aggression as they try to help victims who have been the targets of young women operating alone or in gangs. PC Nia Tregunna is called to sheltered housing where two girls aged 17 and 13 have been terrorising staff and vandalising property. PC Tom Gregory investigates an early evening report of a group of women attacking a single girl. PC Jon Simpson visits the male victim of an opportunist robbery by a woman at his home. A 12-year-old girl who has endured years of bullying gives a statement to police about the teen girl gang who attacked her and set fire to her hair.
