Two motocross bikes have been seized after being ridden anti-socially around Swindon.
Officers from the Local Policing Tasking Team (LPTT) spotted the bikes in the town centre on Monday evening (30 September).
They were being ridden without number plates, through red lights and in bus lanes.
The bikes were followed into Cricklade, where one was stung. Both riders made off, but police later located the bikes at an address in White Horse Road.
Two males believed to have been riding them fled the scene. Enquiries are ongoing to support a prosecution.
Sgt Kate Isaac said: “Our neighbourhood teams have had multiple complaints from residents in relation to these bikes causing issues in Cricklade and Swindon in recent weeks, with them being ridden in an anti-social manner, disusing back roads, committing traffic offences and generally causing a nuisance for residents.
“We are grateful to our colleagues in LPTT who have now seized the bikes and we will continue with our enquiries.”
Anyone with information, or CCTV or doorbell footage from White Horse Road, Bath Road or the High Street in Cricklade around 8pm on 30 September, should email [email protected].
