“Upon seeing us, the two males riding this motorbike attempted to ride away quickly.

“Embarrassingly they both fell off without us even giving chase. They ran away before we got a chance to speak to them see if they were okay.

“If they would like to get in contact, we would love to speak to you about why you didn't want to talk to us.

“Motorbike has been recovered, suspected to be stolen.”

Anyone with information should call 101.
