Uninsured car taken off Selby roads

An uninsured car has been taken off the roads of Selby, after night-time police patrols to disrupt rural criminals.

Officers from North Yorkshire Police's Rural Taskforce were on duty in Whitley, south of Selby, in the early hours of this morning, when they spotted a Vauxhall Insignia car in suspicious circumstances.

It was stopped, and the two male occupants searched. Although nothing was found, the car was uninsured, so it was seized by police.

North Yorkshire Police patrols in rural areas are often supported by Mobile Rural Watch volunteers, who can act as officers' 'eyes and ears'.

To find out more about the scheme, contact North Yorkshire Police on 101 and ask for your local Neighbourhood Policing Team or Rural Taskforce officer.
