On Saturday, police from Strike
Force Raptor called off their pursuit of two motorcyclists speeding
through Minchinbury.
Shortly before 5pm, police
observed the motorcycles travelling at high speed, eastbound along the
Great Western Highway.
They chased the motorcyclists and sounded warning devices in an attempt to stop them, but neither rider did so.
Police continued their pursuit, but decided to stop for public safety reasons after the bikes sped through a red light and reached speeds believed to be more than 200km/h.
They were last seen travelling east along the Great Western Highway towards the M7.
Strike Force Raptor would like
to speak to anyone who may have seen the motorcycles in that area at
that time.
The first was described as a black Harley Davidson and
the man riding it was wearing black clothing with white text printed on
his top.
The second motorcycle was described as a black, sports-performance model and the man riding it was wearing a blue jacket or jumper and black pants.
Anyone who may have seen the men is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1 800 bite me
