    Police are appealing for witnesses following a series of incidents involving a stolen motorbike in Wakefield.

    The motorbike, a black Honda CBF, is believed to have been taken from outside Pontefract Crematorium on Monday 24 September between 12.50 and 1.30pm.

    Two male suspects using the vehicle are thought to have been involved in up to five incidents on Tuesday, including thefts and threatening members of the public.

    The motorbike was reported to have last been seen being driven in Normanton.

    Detective Inspector Dave Rogerson, of Wakefield CID, said: “The suspects have been riding this motorbike throughout the district, causing considerable damage and causing distress to a number of victims.

    “Our investigation remains ongoing and we have been carrying out CCTV and house to house enquiries.

    “I would appeal for anyone who has any information on the stolen motorbike or anyone who has any information on the suspects involved in the offences to get in touch with police.

    “I would also ask for anyone who may have been on the roads at the time of the incidents and may have dash-cam footage of the motorbike, to get in contact.”
