Police in West Leeds are appealing for information on motorbike theft and anti-social use of bikes and e-vehicles.
The Leeds West Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) has launched Operation Bradebank to tackle the theft of and anti-social/criminal use of motor bikes and e-vehicles.
An NPT West spokesperson said police need to increase our intelligence in relation to the following:
1. Where are the vehicles being kept when not in use?
2. Who is using them?
3. Where are the areas they are regularly frequenting or cutting through?
A spokesperson added: “It is worth noting that with the exception of Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycles, these vehicles cannot be used lawfully on public roads and pavements, for example an e-scooter on a pavement/road would potentially be an offence of driving not in accordance of licence and insurance.”
More information on the use of electric scooters, bikes and quads can be found here.
Leeds West NPT covers Armley, Bramley, Kirkstall, Calverley, Farsley, Farnley, Pudsey, Stanningley, Wortley and surrounding areas.
