A NUISANCE quad bike was seized yesterday by police.

Officers from the Bradford South Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) said they were acting on intelligence from members of the public.

They saw a male riding the quad along the Fenwick Drive area of Woodside and when the rider saw police, he attempted to accelerate away.

The engine stalled and police detained him and seized the quad bike under Section 59 powers.

The team said: "We encourage members of public to report any Anti-social use of motor vehicles via 101 or our online web chat service www.westyorkshire.police.uk/101LiveChat, so we can tailor patrols in these areas.

"Bradford South NPT continue to disrupt and deter those intent on speeding and violating traffic laws within Bradford South with a programme of education and regular enforcement involving key partner agencies."
