Cheshire Police have seized and destroyed six e-scooters ridden on public highways in Crewe – and warn they will do the same in all towns if parents buy them for children at Christmas.
Police and crime commissioner John Dwyer also urged residents to report their neighbours if they had the vehicles and were riding them illegally on public roads or pavements.
Police chiefs have pledged to target e-scooters “plaguing” the streets of Nantwich, town councillors were told.
Crime Commissioner John Dwyer said six e-scooters in the town had already been seized and issued a warning to parents not to buy the “illegal” machines for their kids.
