Dear resident

Op Spree is an operation focusing on tackling the anti–social use of off-road bikes. 

We have a dedicated email address where anyone can email information they have in relation to off road bikes in their area. 

We have received information regarding the storage of off-road bikes at an address in Sutton Hill via the Op Spree email. 

On Wednesday 29th January the Cuckoo Oak and Ironbridge team received a report of a male riding a blue quad bike in an anti-social manner. With the information already received through Op Spree the team were quickly able to locate the male.

The male was issued a section 59 warning for driving a motor vehicle in an inconsiderate manner and a manner which has been causing or is likely to cause alarm, distress, or annoyance to members of the public. The warning is hereby given that if the male drives any motor vehicle in a similar manner during the next 12 months; then under the provision of section 59 of the Police Reform Act 2002 the vehicle may be seized.

If you have any information in relation to the use or storage of off-road bikes, please email opspree@westmercia.police.uk

It is only by the police and the public working together that we can prevent and detect anti – social behaviour and crime.
