Alex Easton MLA has been left Appalled at an incident that has seen joy riders crash through traffic lights and through into a Pensioners bungalow at the Bloomfield Road South, Bangor.

Speaking today Alex Easton MLA said:

“This is truly a shocking and appalling incident to have taken near a primary school, Bloomfield shopping Centre and a busy pedestrian crossing. Joy riders have not only risked death and harm to themselves they have also shown by their actions that they could quick easily have killed a pensioner or a child. This incident happened in the morning in broad daylight, as these reckless individuals lost control of a car and crashing through traffic lights and a pensioner’s bungalow on the Bloomfield Road South, Bangor.”

“The actions of those involved could have quite easily have killed a pensioner or a child if the school had been open. Those involved are nothing better than thugs and need to be caught brought before the courts and sentenced to a period behind bars for their actions, these individuals are a danger to society and need to be stopped.”

“I am appealing to anyone with information to contact the PSNI as a matter of urgency.”
