In the past few months, the PSNI has been dealing with a growing number of complaints from residents in the Garden Village, Reids Road and Ballystrudder Gardens areas about young people using scramblers and other small motorbikes.

"If this continues, we will seize the vehicles and have them scrapped and the offenders may face prosecution."
