A YOUTH who was caught riding a dirt bike across Bradford’s City Park has been sentenced.

The 17-year-old male, who cannot be named for legal reasons, committed several offences alongside Abdul Khan, 21, of Sandford Road in Bradford Moor, earlier this year.

The incident unfolded on Tuesday, April 30 as children paddled in the popular Mirror Pool.

The Telegraph & Argus captured footage of the pair riding the unregistered bikes across City Park, which often draws large crowds on sunny days.

At the time, one onlooker told the Telegraph & Argus: "I was really saddened by it.

"It's such a shame when yobs ruin such a good afternoon for people enjoying the weather."

• Driving a motor vehicle dangerously

• Using a motor vehicle on a road/public place without third-party insurance

• Driving a motor vehicle otherwise than in accordance with a licence

• Riding a motorcycle on a road and failing to wear protective headgear

Khan was sentenced to 12-month disqualification, 80 hours of unpaid work and a rehabilitation order.

Earlier this week, the 17-year-old was also slapped with a 12-month disqualification from driving and ordered to pay a fine to court.

Additionally, he received a 12-month referral order.
