Appeal to trace rider of e-bike after vehicle seized in Carnforth

The rider of an e-bike fled from police when the vehicle was seized after being driven in an anti-social manner in Carnforth over the weekend.

The incident happened on Market Street on Saturday evening, when the rider ran away from the scene after being stopped.

PC Shaun Foster from Lancaster Area Police said: ‘’You may have noticed a number of individuals who seem to think it is acceptable to ride electric motorbikes around town over the last couple of weeks.

‘’These are power machines which are great fun on agreed off road areas but on our roads they are a menace and a danger, not only to the irresponsible riders who wear no protective clothing but also to the rest of the community.

‘’I would welcome any information people have about who the riders are and where they live. I would say to those riders to think about the consequences of their actions before it is too late.

‘’In the meantime I would kindly implore the young man who ran off from me to make contact with me at Morecambe Police Station to discuss the matter.’’
