Police officer who was driving van that followed teens before e-bike crash will not face charges

No charges will be brought against a police officer who was driving a van that followed two teenagers before they died in an e-bike crash.

The deaths of Harvey Evans, 15, and Kyrees Sullivan, 16, sparked riots in the Ely area of Cardiff in May 2023.

The officer was facing a dangerous driving allegation, but the Crown Prosecution Service said it wasn't taking things further after a "detailed review of the evidence".

It said there was not enough evidence for a realistic prospect of conviction.

A statement added: "We fully understand that this will be disappointing news for the families of both boys and will offer a meeting with them to explain our reasoning further."
