A teenager is due to appear in court after a car was damaged in a collision with an electric bike.
Police were called to Sherbrook Road around 10am on Saturday, September 27, following reports a bike had crashed into a vehicle and the rider had fled the scene.
Officers arrested a suspect in a nearby alleyway and seized the bike following further inquiries.
A 15-year-old boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has been charged with failing to stop after an accident, driving without due care and attention and driving without a licence or insurance.
He is expected to appear at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court on October 8 2025.
Police Constable Michael Callan, of the Gedling North neighbourhood policing team, said:“We are receiving frequent reports of antisocial behaviour involving the illegal use of electric bikes in our communities.
“Neighbourhood officers have recently held days of action to target the issue in Gedling and discussions with our partners about it are ongoing.
“Following this incident a bike has been taken off the streets and a suspect placed before the courts.”
