Teenage boys injured in crash involving a stolen moped

Police are investigating after a carer's moped was stolen and crashed in Clevedon, leaving her with no transport.

The woman used the blue Lex Moto moped to travel to work but it was stolen overnight on Monday (July 20) from Sunnyside Road, Clevedon. 

At 3.45am on Tuesday (July 21), the vehicle was seen being ridden in the car park of Tesco, Clevedon. Just under an hour later, a witness called to report that it had crashed in Corner Croft and damaged a fence.

Officers called to the scene found two injured teenage boys nearby. The boys, both aged under 17, required hospital treatment to fractures not believed to be life-threatening or life-changing.
