Destruction for destruction's sake

(By Prospero/Alberto) This is how I found a railing this morning. On the floor but forced there with a great deal of strength. As I came back from Henrietta's party last night (pics later on that) I came across three boys aged about 13 or 14, breaking a street lamp just outside the pensioners' day centre, a little further up the steps from the railing. I don't know if they were the perpetrators of the railing destruction but when I told them off I was threatened with 'the ruin' (la ruina is something like 'a lot of trouble for you'). I could denounce them as I am able to identify them, but is it worth the hassle?
