A teenager pulled a wheelie on a scrambler bike and led police on a high-speed chase.
Owen Jameson, 19, sped along Thomas Drive in Prescot on an off-road scrambler bike on March 7, 2023. Jameson, who was disqualified from driving due to a previous offence, was spotted by a police officer as he performed a wheelie at speed in a 20mph zone.
The officer pursued Jameson, having to drive at 50 mph to keep the teenager in sight. Jameson, from Huyton, performed wheelies - taking the bike's front wheel off the ground at speed - for around 100 metres, veering towards pedestrians.
