AN 87-year-old woman who has Alzheimers was left trapped under her wheelchair after being hit by a scrambler bike in Bebington.

Emergency services were called to Townfield Lane on Saturday afternoon to reports of a collision between an off-road bike and two pedestrians Saturday.

The victim, who was with her daughter, was found on the ground trapped under her wheelchair.

An ambulance was called and the woman was treated for non-life threatening injuries.

Prior to the collision it is believed the scrambler bike was on Town Lane before entering Townfield Lane travelling in the direction of Oaklands Drive.

The rider and pillion passenger left a black scrambler bike at the scene.

One male is described as around 14-years-old wearing grey tracksuit bottoms and top.

Officers are making enquiries to locate the rider and pillion passenger.

Inspector Mark Keenan said: "If you saw the vehicle in the area shortly before this incident, or witnessed the incident itself then please come forward.

"This was a particularly callous incident considering a frail 87-year-old woman was injured.

"We would also appeal to anyone who may have dashcam footage or CCTV footage of any part of this incident, before, during and after to get in touch."
