Armed police and local officers worked together to bring a suspect into custody and locate a pair of stolen motorbikes in Derbyshire.

On Tuesday, February 21, two stolen motorbikes were recovered from a Langley Mill property by the Heanor Safer Neighbourhood Team – with assistance from the Derbyshire Armed Response Unit.

An SNT spokesperson said: “One motorbike was reported stolen from the Alfreton area, and with some good intelligence, was located in less than an hour of being reported stolen. A second bike was also located at the same address, which had been reported stolen from the Nottingham area.”
