Man Arrested On Suspicion Of Stealing Electric Scooter In Brighton

Police have made an arrest after a man was robbed of his electric scooter while he was riding it.

The 62-year-old man was riding his stand-up electric scooter in Moulescoomb Way on Wednesday (May 19) afternoon, when he was pushed off it by another man who carried it away.

The victim was shaken but unhurt.

A 21-year-old was arrested later that day on suspicion of robbery and released on bail until June 17th while enquiries continue.

Officers also recovered the scooter at a nearby address.
