A THURROCK family have called for help as they try to find a stolen electrical cycle, snatched just a couple of weeks before its owner was due to take part of a charity event.

Ben Allen, who can be contacted via his Facebook page, says: "I am hoping someone could help me out. My dad's electric bike was stolen outside Corringham cycles last Saturday (30 October).

"He was due to start a charity bike run in the coming weeks. He will pay £750 for the safe return, no questions asked.

"Please get in touch with me or Corringham Cycles on 01375 644067."
