Bike theft warning
CYCLISTS have been urged to ensure their bikes are secure following a spate of thefts.
North Yorkshire Police said three bicycles were stolen from York College and Tesco at Askham Bar.
A spokesman said: "North Yorkshire Police recommend that cycles are locked using two locks one from the front and one at the rear of the cycle. It is also recommended that the locks should be around 10 per cent of the value of the cycle.
"If you see anyone acting suspicious near to the cycle racks at York College or Tesco Askham Bar that you contact North Yorkshire Police on 101 or if a theft is in progress 999."
