The electric bike involved in the fatal crash that killed two teenagers in Ely, Cardiff, was an early birthday present for one of the victims, Harvey Evans, who was an experienced rider. The deaths sparked a riot, with cars set alight and police officers attacked. The police have denied chasing the boys, but the force has referred itself to the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) over their involvement in the incident. The boys' families and friends held a vigil and balloon release for them, and more arrests are expected in connection with the disorder.
