Hull: Attempted motorcycle theft

Humberside Police want to find two motorbike riders and two pillion passengers who allegedly tried to steal another motorbike while it was being ridden along the road by its owner.

The incident happened on Boothferry Road in Hull near the Tesco petrol station around 8pm on 28 August.

The suspects’ bikes pulled up on either side of the victim and they started kicking the motorbike shouting for him to get off. The victim managed to ride away.

One of the bikes was a red moped with LED lights on it and no number plate. The other was a black, yellow, and green ‘crosser’ bike which also didn’t have a number plate and had a torch taped to the front as a headlight.

One of the riders was wearing a black helmet, the other a white one. They and their passengers were all wearing dark clothing.

Did you see these bikes or the suspects? Do you know who they are or have any information?

Please call 101 quoting log 610 of 28/08/18. Please use the term ‘Operation Yellowfin’ when reporting anything to us.
