A young boy was left devastated after a thief stole his brand-new bicycle.
Police investigating the theft have released CCTV images of a man they would like to speak to in connection with the theft which happened at an address in Greasley Court, Mansfield.
The teal-coloured ‘Mafia Bomma’ bike, with black tyres, was stolen from the boy’s grandma’s back garden.
It’s believed the offender, who rode off on the bike, also took a parcel that was being delivered to the address.
Inquiries remain ongoing into the theft which happened around 3.15 pm on 21 December 2023.

“We are determined to catch the person responsible, and we believe the man pictured in these images may have valuable information which could assist us with our inquiries.
“We’d appeal to this man, or anyone who recognises him from the images, to please get in contact with us as soon as possible.”
