POLICE officers in Flintshire say they have received 'several reports' of off-road bikes being driven through a field in the county.

Earlier this week, the Leader reported on Connah's Quay county councillor, Bernie Attridge's fears that "someone is going to get killed" because of the vehicles being driven dangerously. 

Dozens of people have been taking to local social media groups over recent weeks to complain about the bikes - which are reportedly being ridden by youths on paths and in parks.
