OFFICERS who received numerous complaints of anti-social behaviour locally have seized a motorbike which was being used by a 12-year-old.
Following the reports involving bikes across south Wealden, PCSO Davidson and PCSO Nicoll located the bike along Station Road, Hellingly, yesterday evening (Tuesday) whilst on patrol.
The bike was seized under Section 165 of the Road Traffic Act due to having no tax, no insurance and no number plate.
Based on previous reports and descriptions, Police suspect the same bike was being used across the areas of Horsebridge, Hellingly and Hailsham – specifically the Country Park off Gleneagles Drive.
Police have thanked the public for their support in helping them locate and identify the youths in question.
The Neighbourhood Policing Team work to prevent and deter anti-social behaviour across the district, and we encourage the public to continue reporting to us should anything happen that we need to know about.
