POLICE have recovered a stolen scooter which was found in the Thorpe Edge area of Bradford.

West Yorkshire Police's Steerside Enforcement Team who were out and about on their own bikes today made the find.

It follows action taken after stopping a moped being ridden in Shipley on Friday when checks found the bike had no insurance, no tax and no MOT certificate. Officers also discovered the rider was disqualified from the road.

The moped was seized and the rider reported to court.
