Police are appealing for witnesses after a young teenage boy had his bicycle stolen and/or for information about the whereabouts of the bike.

It was reported that there was some sort of altercation after which the bike was stolen. 

Pictures of the bike are attached, although it may have been scratched at the rear end to make it look older.

If you can help with our enquiries, perhaps you saw the incident outside McDonald's, please contact Det Con Rachel Catling on 101 or anonymously, via Crimestoppers, on 0800 555 111. Contact can also be made via e-mail:  [email protected]
