These sh*tbags need to stop. Ban the masks, harsher punishment when they're caught. I would be gutted to find out one of my kids were up to anything like this
Please help Noah make as much money as we can, even just to prove they won't win no matter what.

This is Noah Nash. He was dragged across the ground as he tried to stop balaclava-clad robbers stealing his precious mountain bike 💔
The cycle-mad 14-year-old spent two-and-a-half years saving every penny he had to buy his perfect bike. But just 10 days after getting the Santa Cruz Hightower he dreamed of, it was cruelly taken away by moped riding thieves. 😠
Noah, from Greenside, in Gateshead, said: "It was quite scary. I didn't want to get stabbed or anything. I had only had the bike for 10 days. I'm gutted it's gone. I'm angry and sad."
The teenager decided to take the bike for a spin with a friend while he had a couple of free hours between school and cricket training. It was only the fourth time he had been out on the bike. 😮
Noah's dad Gary explained told how his son was so determined to buy his ideal bike that he sold his games console and saved all his pocket money and Christmas and birthday cash to make the purchase.
He said: "They pushed Noah off the bike, he grabbed it and the were dragging it off him, dragging him across the floor. He was pleading with them not to take it."
Thankfully Noah didn't suffer any serious injuries and police are now hunting the thieves following the robbery. Noah's family have since set-up a page on the the crowd-funding site GoFundMe in a bid to replace the bike.
Absolutely disgraceful 😡 We hope you manage to get a new bike Noah 🙏
