Two stolen motorbikes have been recovered and a suspect arrested in Ashford.
Just after 2am on Friday 3 February 2023, officers on patrol attempted to stop a motorcyclist on suspicion it was stolen. The suspect failed to stop which resulted in a pursuit involving a number of units.
The driver was reported to be driving dangerously after allegedly driving through red lights, driving the wrong way on a road, and driving on a public footpath at speed. Kent Police brought the bike to a stop on Littlebrook Road.
The suspect made off on foot but was located shortly after by the police helicopter at a nearby address.
Initial enquiries showed that the motorbike ridden by the suspect had been reported stolen, as had a further bike found at the property.
A 21-year-old man is in custody and enquiries are ongoing.
