Whilst trying to establish the cause of the apparent crash on 1 May this year, CCTV was discovered that showed the teenager, from Chesterfield, wheeling his bike into the middle of the road and crawling underneath it.

The teenager was interviewed and it wasn’t until he was shown the CCTV that he admitted he had lied about the whole incident.

The Nottinghamshire Police released the footage in the hope it will encourage people to think twice before wasting the time of emergency services.

Following the prosecution, Nottinghamshire Police, East Midlands Ambulance Service and Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service urged the people to use the 999 emergency line appropriately, and only contact the non-emergency 101 line if it is a police matter.
