Police investigating a number of petrol thefts across the county have released images of a motorcyclist they would like to speak to.

The thefts occurred at several petrol stations across Hertfordshire between September 2012 and June 2014. All the thefts involved either a black Honda CBR Fireblade or an orange CBR Fireblade bike, believed to be ridden by the same person.

Thirteen thefts are currently being investigated - including some in St Albans.
