Bridlington wheelie bin pranksters told to stop

Bins are being used to illegally block Marton Road, Bridlington, police say

Pranksters repeatedly blocking a Bridlington road using wheelie bins are being told to pack it in.

Humberside Police said it had received "numerous" reports of bins "completely blocking" Marton Road at night.

A force spokesperson said: "It is an offence to wilfully obstruct a highway for the obvious safety issues it can cause if a vehicle was to hit them when travelling, especially at night."

Anyone with information is asked to call police.
