Flint: A wild scene unfolded when some bike riders decided to show off. They were riding in a way that really put people at risk. It was all happening in Flint and Connah’s Quay.

North Wales Police got several calls about these riders. They were on off-road bikes and electric bikes, acting like they owned the streets. They even rode on sidewalks, which is just reckless.

When the police tried to stop them, the riders took off. So, the police had to get creative. They used drones and a helicopter to track them down. Safety first, right?

Eventually, they found three of these guys hiding in the woods. Thanks to the drone unit and the National Police Air Service, they were caught and arrested. Three bikes were also recovered.

These riders are now facing charges under the Roads Traffic Act. If you want to ride on the road, you need insurance and a proper license. Simple as that.

The police made it clear: this kind of behavior won’t be tolerated. They’re ready to use all sorts of tactics to keep the public safe from reckless riders.

Stay safe out there, folks!
