Children as young as eight are terrorising a town in retaliation after an Aboriginal man was shot by police.
Residents in Cowra, in central west New South Wales, are so terrified they are sleeping with weapons next to their beds.
Dennis John 'DJ' Doolan was shot by police on September 28, prompting angry members of the Aboriginal community to chant 'black lives matter' until elders had to stop them rioting.
The 32-year-old accused thief is still in hospital recovering following the shooting.
Now the town is being terrorised by a mob of mostly Aboriginal children, believed to be as young as eight years old, who are raiding homes to steal jewellery, power tools and electronics, Daily Mail Australia can reveal.
Handwritten notes have been placed in a number of letterboxes threatening people following break-ins across the town.
Diane, who only wanted to be known by her first name, has been targeted twice in the past 18 days.
'The first time they targeted the shed and took my dog Bonnie - a German shepherd - who they beat up,' Diane told Daily Mail Australia.
'The second time they cleaned out the shed of my husband's tools.
'They know I am at the house alone - because my husband is in a nursing home, but they do target the vulnerable.'
She now sleeps with a golf club next to her bed, and her dog sleeps inside because she is worried she'll be hurt again.
A former Cowra youth worker who mentored many of the children accused of the violent break ins noted the incidents have intensified since the shooting.
'The little ones think the cops can't touch them because the Aboriginal community will back them,' the source told Daily Mail Australia.

And we know what group this is, but we are not allowed to say it. Look at the crime statistics by race.
Hmmm.Well,to be completely accurate I guess it should be noted that I didn't drive through the center,or "downtown",of the city but rather around the outskirts.I was coming up I-29 from North Dakota into Manitoba and as I entered the outskirts of Winnipeg I picked up the Trans Canada Highway heading east to Toronto.During my entire drive through the Dakotas and southern Manitoba I was reminded that farming...grain...was what made that part of the world tick.I don't often associate grain farmers...American *or* Canadian...with gangs,drugs,etc.
I guess that next time I get to Winnipeg I should be on my guard.
Without having read the article, I suspect something similar amongst the Australian Aborigines. Without cultural norms, kids act out, the lowest common denominator, as it were.
Frankly some of the tribes have lost or have very poor cultural norms.
Handwritten notes have been placed in a number of letterboxes threatening people following break-ins across the town.
I am amazed that they can write. Very poor education and literacy among many of these neglected, restless, violent youth in indigenous communities. Also, I am slightly surprised that they were able to beat up a German Shepherd - she must be a very good, obedient dog because otherwise she would have attacked them. I hate cruelty to animals. I hope this crime is fully investigated - but I think it will not be.
