Further Arrest Following Mass Bike Ride In Leeds Brought Halloween Chaos

    Detectives investigating an incident in Leeds on Monday night involving a large number of motorbikes have made a further arrest. 

    A man, aged 30, was arrested yesterday morning as part of on-going enquiries into the incident where motorbikes were ridden anti-socially and dangerously around the city centre and in Kirkstall Road. A vehicle has been seized on suspicion of being used in crime. 

    A 26-year-old man who was arrested on Tuesday in connection with the incident has been released on police bail pending further enquiries.
