County Durham residents hit out at 'reckless' off-road teenage bikers

Date of alert:

Friday, 14 October 2022

Crime Ref:

Force:

Durham Constabulary

Residents across County Durham have hit out at ‘nuisance’ off-road bikers after young kids have been ‘terrorising’ towns and villages across the region on the vehicles.

Fed-up homeowners in rural County Durham are said to be ‘fed up’ at having to contend with the off-road bikes that are taking over parks, green space, and even people’s gardens, as the police look to tackle the anti-social behaviour.

Since the start of the year, teens have been photographed ‘flying’ through rural locations and on the edge of Durham City – which residents have branded ‘reckless’.
