Off-road bikers causing chaos in neighbourhoods across south Wales are facing a major new police offensive. South Wales Police has announced it has assembled a new anti-social off-road team who will be dedicated to dealing with the problem.
Officers have said in a statement that there are "increasing levels of organised crime" being committed by people using off-road bikes to get around, whilst acknowledging the nuisance and potential risk of harm and injury they can cause to the public and animals.
The new operation will use an "intelligence-driven approach" to identify offenders and disrupt the illegal activity. And the force has encouraged anyone who is experiencing an issue where they live to report it to them.
