West Midlands Police (WMP) are investigating after a group of people were seen riding quad bikes dangerously near the Arcadian in central Birmingham this weekend.
WMP investigators have been reviewing footage of the group, who were seen in the early hours of Saturday (20th July), as enquiries to identify and trace those involved continue.
Police specialist traffic officers are on hand to carry out extra patrols in the area and they have the power to seize and crush vehicles where necessary.
Officers from local Birmingham teams are also working closely with partners, including the Southside BID, to tackle such behaviour.
Birmingham Chief Inspector Rich Evans, said: “This sort of behaviour is totally unacceptable and will not be tolerated on the streets of our city.
“It is both dangerous for those on the roads and pavements as well as being disruptive and unpleasant for anyone in the area to have to endure.
“We are liaising with partners in the city as our investigation goes on and we’d urge anyone who can help identify those involved to come forward.
“Investigators want to hear from anyone who has CCTV or dashcam footage of the incident to get in touch, or if you think you know who these riders may be, please get in contact.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact West Midlands Police on Live Chat at www.west-midlands.police.uk (8am – midnight) or to call 101 any time quoting crime reference number log 184 of 20 July.
