POLICE are hunting a motorbike rider who crashed with a cyclist and fled the scene.
The youth was driving on the pavement in Rowan Way, Angmering, with a passenger riding pillion at about 5.30pm last Saturday when his bike collided with the bicycle.
The youths, aged about 16 or 17, left the scene.
The cyclist suffered minor injuries.
PC Lisa Holt, of Sussex Police, said: “The suspect and pillion are described as aged between 16 and 17 and were both wearing grey tracksuits. Riding a motorcycle on the pavement is extremely dangerous and the injuries suffered by the cyclist could have been a lot worse.
“We will be increasing police patrols in the Bramley Green area to prevent this type of behaviour but we would still encourage anyone who witnesses a matter such as this to report it to us without delay.”
Anyone with information should call the force on 101 quoting serial 930 of 08/09.
