POLICE have recovered two cars after receiving multiple calls reporting vehicles being raced and driven anti-socially near a city centre.

A total of more than 20 defects were found on the two cars that were seized in York, a spokesman for North Yorkshire Police Roads Policing Group said.

The spokesman added: “Both have been issued immediate prohibition notices and must be repaired and tested before being driven on the road.

“The drivers can expect court appearances for numerous offences.”
