Police in Chesterfield appeal for witnesses after theft of motorbike

The Yamaha DT125 (Pictured) was stolen from outside an address on High Street, Old Whittington, at around 3am on Wednesday, June 24.

The theft is being investigated by PC Thomas Christie, who said: “The engine of the motorbike would have sounded quite loud at that time in the morning and so I would like to hear from anyone who heard or saw anything suspicious at that time.

“Sometimes these bikes can be stolen and then used off-road so I would also like to hear from anyone who has seen it being used or maybe has been offered a similar looking bike for sale.”

If you have any information contact the police on 101 or online www.derbyshire.police.uk/Contact-Us. and mention PC Thomas Christie quoting reference number 20*320010.
