Police appeal for owner of 'Fast & Furious: Leyland Drift' e-bike to come forward

Yesterday, officers spotted an e‑bike being ridden dangerously around the Dunkirk Lane area of Leyland.

When the rider noticed them, the bike stayed, but the rider went full ‘Houdini’ and made a swift getaway.

A spokesperson for South Ribble Police said: “This e‑bike thought it was auditioning for Fast & Furious: Leyland Drift!”

“The good news? The e‑bike has been seized, so it won’t be causing any more issues for local residents.”

They added: “If you are the rider and you’re reading this. Come and have a chat with us…we’ll even put the kettle on!”
