Summary

Police in north Belfast are sounding the alarm over reckless e-bike and e-scooter riding, warning that lives are at risk as riders perform dangerous wheelies in busy areas. Two teens were stopped Sunday for speeding and stunt riding in New Lodge and Antrim Road, now facing justice. Authorities say such behavior is escalating and could lead to serious injury or death — echoing a recent hospitalization in west Belfast after a scooter crash. This isn’t just about fun — it’s a safety emergency. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
