A teenager died after veering off a cycle path and into a telegraph pole while riding his electric bike in Flintshire.

Jamie Michael Jones was riding his motorised bicycle on a cycle path in Sealand when the tragic incident occurred on December 12, 2021.

The electrically assisted pedal cycle ridden by the 17-year-old at the time was a non-road legal replica with an 8000w motor capable of reaching speeds over 70mph.
