The victim of a motorbike theft who yelled ‘f***ing d***s’ at a gang as they took his wheels away says he’s convinced he’s found the thieves on social media.
Mark Powell had his Yamaha MT09 stolen on Chepstow Street in the city centre on Monday, February 20, while he was at work. In the days since, he claimed he’s been contacted by a motorcycle dealership which spotted apparent thieves posing with a motorbike on TikTok and Instagram.
The posts include hashtags like #IStoleYourDadsBike and #F***YouGMP, Mark said. However, GMP has told the MEN the posts are ‘linked to a separate crime’.
