Police have warned that people who cause nuisance by riding motorbikes dangerously will have them seized.

Thames Valley Police said in a statement on Monday that there have been "numerous reports" of antisocial behaviour connected to motorbikes and mini pit bikes being ridden in and around Eynsham over the last few weeks. 

A number of individuals have been spoken to and been given warnings, police said.

If officers have reason to believe a vehicle is being driven in a manner that causes alarm, distress, or annoyance to the public they can be confiscated.

A Thames Valley Police statement said: "We would like to thank those who reported this to police and ask that if the bikes are seen in the future this be reported to us on 101 as soon as possible, as we now have the power to seize and remove the motor vehicle."
