Linda Cahill with son Cashel, 16, whose motorbike was stolen over the weekend from the family's back garden.

A TEENAGER has been left frustrated after working hard and saving up for a motorbike – only for it to be stolen last weekend.

Student Cashel Cahill, 16, keeps his KTM 125cc bike – distinguishable by its stickers and orange trim – parked out of view in the garden around the back of the family home in Rue des Marais, St Peter’s.

He returned home on Saturday at about 11.45pm and discovered it was gone when he woke up the next morning.

Cashel and his mum Linda thought the bike might have been taken to be sold on or broken up for parts.

Anyone with information should contact the police station on 725111 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Guernsey is such a small island,have faith in the police that they will catch the low lifes who stole your motor bike. Surely it will get out as there cant be 100′s of KTM’s on the island someone will one day will let slip they know who did it. Prehaps oneday they too may get their car/bike stolen and let them know just how it feels to be violated SHAME on them.

“distinguishable by its stickers and orange trim” – like pretty much every KTM on the island, of which there are a fair amount. Which, of course, is unfortunate for anyone trying to identify this bike.

Hope this lad gets his bike back, will keep my eyes and ears open for anything dodgy!
