In the early hours of May 11th, the Pitstop Youth Workshop in Bexhill, a newly established facility by the Pit-Stop Youth Trust, was targeted in a devastating ram raid. At around 1am, the workshop was broken into using a stolen electric vehicle. According to the charity, a van is also believed to have been involved in the raid.
The incident resulted in the loss of a significant amount of equipment and tools, including two motorcycles and other powered items. The combined damage and theft are expected to cost the charity over £25,000, a substantial amount that their insurance will not fully cover.
