Police troll TikTok biker after arresting him for dangerous stunts Durham ConstabularyA TikToker whose account consisted of dangerous motorbike stunts has been thanked by police for supplying them with all the evidence needed for his arrest. In today\u2019s age of technology, it\u2019s important to be aware of your \u2018digital footprint\u2019 and what you leave behind on the internet for others to see. A man who regularly posted motorbike stunts on TikTok has just discovered the importance of one\u2019s digital footprint after his account was used as evidence for his arrest. 23-year-old Kane Tilney was arrested by police in February on approximately 20 offenses, including dangerous driving, failing to wear a helmet, and driving without a license \u2014 and now the police have hilariously thanked him for the evidence on his TikTok. Tilney regularly posted to his TikTok account, showing the young man recklessly hurling through Darlington on his motorbike. Clips show Tilney driving on the wrong side of the road, on pavement, and without a helmet. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Durham Police thanked Tilney for supplying the videos via TikTok; \u201cA nuisance biker has been brought to justice \u2013 after he uploaded videos of his offending to social media. Kane Tilney helpfully kept his TikTok account updated with videos of himself riding dangerously in Darlington, making our job very easy indeed\u2026\u201d With a \u201ctreasure trove\u201d of evidence against him, Tiliney pleaded guilty to the charges on November 10. He was sentenced to 12 months in prison, disqualified from driving for two years, and must complete 200 hours of unpaid work. Inspector Matt Plumb from the Darlington Neighbourhood Police Team said in a statement, \u201cTilney is a prolific offender who has plagued the streets of Darlington with his dangerous and illegal riding. \u201cBy filming himself committing these offenses and uploading them to TikTok, he clearly thought he was above the law and could do what he liked \u2014 but it ultimately led to his downfall.\u201d Be sure to check out all the latest entertainment news on our page here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
