Thieves target bikes at school in Peterborough

Pupils at Ken Stimpson Community School in Werrington have been targeted.

Police said: “We are aware of a number of recent bicycle thefts from Ken Stimpson school in Werrington. Please make sure you or your child are locking their bikes up with a good quality bike lock before leaving it for the day.”

The school warned its pupils on social media last week about not leaving their bikes unlocked, adding: “It’s a sad fact that certain members of our community are taking advantage of our students and using the opportunity to take unlocked bikes for their gain.”
