They were found on Friday, 5th June following reports of bike theft in the area.
Acting Sergeant Jas BAIRD reminded people to be cautious if buying second hand bikes or scooters. She said: “Please consider whether they may have been stolen and ask for the relevant paperwork or receipts if you have any concerns. You can register your frame number on a national bike registration database approved by Secured by Design. The frame number is usually found underneath the bike between the pedals or where the back wheel slots in. If your bike is ever stolen and recovered by the police, it can be traced back to you.”
Acting Sgt. Baird added: “If your bike has been stolen, contact us as soon as possible by reporting online at www.cleveland.police.uk . We’ll ask for your frame number, cycle database number, a photo and any other details and make sure you update the status on the cycle database where you registered it. The sooner we know, the sooner we can act, which might stop it being sold on.”
Anyone who recognises any of the bikes or scooters is asked to call 101 quoting reference SE26106281.
