On Monday evening, officers with the Hays Police Department attempted to initiate a traffic stop on two dirt bikes driving “very recklessly during this short pursuit in the 600 block of East Seventh,” according to Lt. Brandon Wright.

Neither bike was street legal, and neither had lights.

As HPD officers were trying to make contact, both riders fled from officers.

Due to the excessive speeds, officers ultimately called off the pursuit.

“Both dirt bikes were white in color, both driven by white males, both riders were wearing black helmets,” Wright said. “One helmet had a red Mohawk on it.”

If you have any information or tips, please contact the HPD at (785) 625-1011.
