Rio Circus at Bridlington offers £500 for return of rider's helmet 'with sentimental value'
A helmet with sentimental value has been stolen from one of the riders at Circus Rio which is currently on in Bridlington – with a £500 reward offered for its safe return.
The helmet was taken between the hours of midnight and 7am today (July 24).
Circus Rio said on its Facebook page: “This helmet has come from Brazil with one of our highly trained stunt riders from our Globe of Speed team.
"It is not of money value to anyone but is very sentimental to him.”
It is a black and silver monster special helmet with a single buckle.
"It means so much to the rider and the team that we are offering a £500 reward for the return of the helmet, no questions asked.”
The circus is on in Bridlington from now until September 1.
Anyone with information can pop down to the circus site, at Bridlington’s Gypsey Road or call the box office team on 07563 727206.
