The Voice of Spalding and South Holland
The family of a nine-year-old motorcyclist have thanked everyone who has helped with fundraising for a replacement bike.
Oliver Malcolm was devastated when his new KTM65 was stolen from his Holbeach home on Monday, June 3. A Suzuki RMZ250 belonging to his dad Anthony was also stolen at the same time.
Neither have been recovered by police, who have yet to attend.
“I just want to say thanks to everyone who have helped so far. I don’t expect hand-outs and appreciate whatever anyone can do,” said Anthony.
A total of £800 has been raised by supporters and through a GoFundMe appeal, almost half the cost of a replacement bike.
Oli had only just got into the sport of motocross and had taken part in a couple of races.
His family, who run Darci’s Sandwich Bar in Holbeach, are hoping to get him a replacement bike.
