'Intimidating' behaviour slammed as police crackdown on 'nuisance' scrambler bikes

Police have started a crackdown on "nuisance behaviour" from scrambler bikes after people living nearby said they feel "intimidated".

Earlier this year, the ECHO spoke to residents of the High Hill Estate area in Prescot who said children were unable to sleep due to being scared of what had become a "regular problem". Scrambler bikes were said to be "flying" on pathways as one mum previously said : "There's going to be a disaster one day, there really is.

"They aren't just riding on the road, they are flying across pathways and fields. It's not just Prescot either, I've got friends in Huyton who also say they are living with the nightmare."
