Stolen motorbike found within a few hours

On Saturday in Thorne, a motorbike decided to go on an unscheduled adventure… unfortunately, without it's owner!

Thankfully, thanks to a quick call to our force control room and some solid police work, the bike's short joyride was cut short and it's now safely back where it belongs - with someone who actually has the keys!

A reminder that while thieves might think they're fast, they're rarely faster than good information, teamwork and a determined police response!

If you spot something suspicious, trust your instincts and let us know. This recovery is proof that acting quickly makes all the difference.

Always lock your bike, use a a quality chain handlebar lock - keep your garages and shed's locked, install motion lighting or CCTV where possible, and don't leave keys or valuables in easy reach.
