Numerous vehicles seized by police in Essex

Officers from Thurrock Neighbourhood Policing Team have taken part in action which has seen a number of nuisance vehicles seized.

Officers recovered a stolen motorbike in the Blackshots Park area, and seized an uninsured bike being ridden illegally across Orsett Heath.

Sergeant Rob Mackenzie of Thurrock NPT said:

“We know how frustrating and intimidating anti-social use of vehicles can be for residents, particularly when bikes are being ridden dangerously through residential areas or on land where they shouldn’t be.

“Operation Caesar is all about being proactive and getting officers into the areas where we know incidents are most likely, to seize vehicles, issue Section 59 warnings or arrest those involved in criminality.

“We will continue to patrol hotspots across Thurrock, listen to concerns raised by the community and take robust action against anyone intent on causing disruption.”
