A coroner has warned of growing public safety concerns around children riding scramblers in unregulated settings as she delivered findings in the inquest of a schoolboy who died after a collision between two off-road bikes.
Nine-year-old Charlie Joyce died in hospital hours after he was involved in the crash with another scrambler, which was ridden by a 13-year-old boy, in Ballymena, Co Antrim, in June 2022.
