A QUAD bike which was stolen from Warrington has been recovered by police following raids in Bootle.

Officers have seized 92 bikes on Friday after police searched different units at a container site as a result of community and police-led intelligence. 

The property includes scrambler bikes, quad bikes, mini scrambler bikes and high-powered superbikes. 

Tests have so far established that eight of the bikes are stolen.

This includes a Suzuki quad bike which was stolen from Warrington in April. 

Examinations are ongoing on the remainder of the bikes. 

DI Steve Reardon said: “We will continue to take pro-active action against those involved in the criminal use of scrambler bikes on our roads.

"We will do everything possible to locate and seize suspected stolen or nuisance bikes and arrest those who are putting the safety of others at risk."
