The bike was found burnt in Stanground.

A motorbike has been found burnt out and dumped close to the River Nene in Peterborough.

The bike is believed to have been stolen from a property before being destroyed and left beside the river along the green wheel close to Kedleston Road in Stanground.

Stanground South ward Councillor Chris Harper said: “Some selfish moron has paid the area a visit last night, stealing and then setting fire to someone’s pride and joy and no doubt, means of getting to work.
