During the early hours of this morning (Monday 30th April) a green Yamaha quad bike has been taken without consent from the Crosby area. It is believed it was taken after 2:30am. The quad was located in the Sulby Claddaghs only a few hours later at 6:45am where it had been abandoned in the river.
Police would appeal for anyone with information on this matter to contact them.
PC Ian SCOTT states “This quad bike had been in regular use on a farm in the area for lambing including late into Sunday night and its loss has caused considerable inconvenience to the farmer as a result. Given the relatively narrow time period, I would ask has anyone seen a quad bike being driven between 2:30am and 6:45am or has anyone witnessed a person walking in the Crosby area after 2:00am or in the vicinity of the Sulby Claddaghs first thing this morning. Given the quad bike was abandoned in a river, the offender may have got home with wet clothing or footwear”.
