Quad bikes and motorbikes

Last week I met some lovely residents and gorgeous four-legged friends in Muxton. 

I had gone to walk round some areas where we have received reports about off-road bikes and quad bikes being used illegally and irresponsibly and purposely frightening members of the public.  

It is disheartening to hear that residents may be frightened to use the footpaths and woodland walks because of these bikes/quads.

We need your help to identify who these people are. 

Operation Spree is a dedicated operation aimed at tackling the anti-social and illegal use of off-road bikes and quads. 

If you have any information about who rides off road bikes, where they ride them or where they store them please email opspree@westmercia.police.uk 

Alternatively, you can go on West Mercia Police website www.westmercia.police.uk and report via an online form or Call 101 and speak to an operator

Or contact Crimestoppers UK (an independent charity) anonymously on www.crimestoppers-uk.org or telephone 0800555111.

Please make sure you report incidents to us to enable us to gather information. If you don't tell us we don't know it's happening.
