POLICE have seized a tiny motorbike from a rider who was causing misery for residents of Birstall.

Over the past few days, officers of West Yorkshire Police's Batley and Spen Neighbourhood Policing Team have received complaints about a bike travelling along the road in various locations of Birstall and Batley.

Officers made enquiries to trace the location of the bike when it was sighted on Bradford Road, Bately.

The off road bike team attended, found the bike and followed it for a short distance before the rider jumped off and ran away. The bike was then seized by officers.
