We continue to receive complaints about vehicles using foot & cycle-paths and riding on grassed areas. Offenders are using motorbikes, scooters, quad bikes in and around various estates causing members of the public harassment alarm and distress.

One of our recent reports relates to a number of quad bikes (pictured) which were seen riding recklessly down Tamworth Road and also causing issues around the estates off Brindley Drive. If anyone recognises the riders of these bikes please either respond to this alert or email me at john.horton@staffordshire.police.uk 

Obviously catching these vehicles on the move is no easy task therefore we require information in regards to who is responsible, where they come from and where they are going etc.

If anybody knows what addresses these vehicles are coming from or going to you can pass this information to us using the online form or LiveChat at www.staffordshire.police.uk or anonymously via Independent UK charity taking crime information anonymously | Crimestoppers (crimestoppers-uk.org)

We require this information to have a significant impact of this type of anti-social behaviour. Our intention is to take positive action against all offending parties which will include parents who are allowing these behaviours.

Our response:

* That offenders are dealt with appropriately and robustly – to reduce reoffending

* Seize illegal motorbikes at every opportunity we have

* To significantly reduce the motorbike-related antisocial behaviour in Tamworth
