OPP search for defiant dirt bike rider

The Ontario Provincial Police in Kingsville is looking for the rider of a dirt bike that refused to pull over.

A police officer patrolling on Main Street and Wigle Avenue around 3:30 p.m. on Monday spotted an off-road motorcycle on the road without a license plate.

Off-road vehicles are not allowed on those roads, and motorized vehicles must be licensed.

The officer activated his emergency lights, and signalled the rider should pull over.

Instead, the driver accelerated and popped a wheelie.

The rider was wearing a green helmet with a sun visor, a black t-shirt, black shorts, and black shoes. The dirt bike has a red gas tank and fender, and white rear side panels.

The OPP has released photos of the rider and would like to hear from anyone who knows the man. They can call 1-888-310-1122, Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477, or submit a tip online at www.catchcrooks.com.
