Three teens arrested after Great Orme motorcyclist death, police launch new appeal

Summary

North Wales Police have arrested three 17- and 18-year-old males in connection with a fatal motorbike crash on Marine Drive and have issued a fresh appeal for dash-cam footage.

North Wales Police said three teenagers, aged 17 to 18, have been arrested and interviewed after a motorcyclist died following a crash on Marine Drive in Llandudno on 29 October. The riders were released while investigations continue.

The police Roads Policing Unit issued a new public appeal, asking anyone who was driving in Llandudno town centre between 10 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. on 29 October, or who drove along Marine Drive between 26 and 29 October, to provide dash-cam footage.

"I would urge people not to speculate on the circumstances of this collision or make comment on social media as this can be particularly distressing," said Detective Inspector Tim Evans of the Serious Collision Investigation Unit.

"Since our initial appeal, we have now traced the black-coloured vehicle. However, I believe that there are people within our local community who have direct information which could assist this investigation and provide answers on what led to the tragic and devastating death of a young man, loved by so many."

Authorities ask anyone with relevant information to contact the Serious Collision Investigation Unit via the North Wales Police website, by calling 101 and quoting reference 26000888717, or by email at OSSSeriousCollisionInvestigationUnitOfficers@northwales.police.uk.
