Thanks to information from our local community, Bedlington Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) have identified a male causing issues in the Bedlington area. We have issued a warning to the male under Sec. 59 of the Police Reform Act (2002) in relation to the use of an off-road motorcycle to cause distress and annoyance to the public.

This means that the male’s vehicle can be seized if the behaviour reoccurs within the next 12 months.

Please continue to contact us via bedlington.npt@northumbria.police.uk or via the force website here with any information regarding motorcycle anti-social behaviour in your area.

Thank you.
