Appeal launched after man is robbed of motorbike outside KFC in Derby


We are appealing for information after a man was robbed of his motorbike from outside a KFC in Derby. 

The victim’s motorbike was parked outside the restaurant in Wyvernside on Friday 4 July at about 3.45pm when he saw two people pushing it away. 

He approached them in an attempt to get his motorbike back when one of the two suspects punched him in the face. 

The two suspects were both wearing face coverings and had a dark blue moped with them at the time.  

They rode away on the moped and the victim’s motorbike towards Chequers Road. 

One of the suspects is described as a white man aged between 17 and 24, about 6ft tall and with a slim build. 

He was wearing a black hooded top, with black gloves, black trousers, white socks and black trainers with a black bag which had a white emblem on it. 

The second suspect is described as a white man, aged between 17 and 24, about 5ft 8ins tall, with a slim build and distinctive light blue eyes. 

He was wearing a dark blue hooded top, grey or blue trousers, dark-coloured trainers and had a black bag with a red logo on it. 

We have released a picture of the stolen motorbike, which is a black and white Yamaha, as part of our investigation and anyone who recognises the vehicle is asked to contact us.
