Cops seize motorcycle over illegal plate

Police are confiscating motorcycles over illegal number plates.

An MCN reader told how his bike was seized because one digit on his number plate was incorrect.

Officers working for controversial police chief Richard Brunstrom in North Wales impounded the bike, the reader said.

North Wales Police refused to comment.

Last week it emerged the force was threatening to seize bikes from riders not charged with any criminal offence. The warnings are issued under legislation designed to tackle anti-social behaviour.
