Nelson Police looking to identify group of youth on dirt bikes

The Nelson Police Department is seeking assistance in identifying a group of youth who allegedly fled from police on dirt bikes Sunday evening. 

Police say the group was spotted riding dirt bikes in lower Fairview shortly before 11:30 p.m. 

The bikes were not street legal, as they had no licence plates, no headlights, and no tail lights. 

When police attempted to pull them over, the riders took evasive action. Police did not pursue in the interest of public safety. 

The group was captured on camera at 7-Eleven. Nelson Police are requesting public assistance to identify the individuals in the above photo. 

Any information can be reported by phone at 250-354-3919 or by email at [email protected].
