Kids on E-Bikes Escaped Police | Harrisburg News

In Lewistown, a wild chase unfolded when a group of 11- and 12-year-olds on e-bikes bolted from police after being spotted cutting across Oak Street. Instead of stopping, they sped through a stop sign, weaved through an apartment complex, rode the wrong way down Locust Street—right past a tractor-trailer—and even hid behind a shed before fleeing again. One bike eventually broke down, allowing officers to catch them. Parents were brought in to help ID the kids, who were all hanging out at a friend’s house. The teens now face misdemeanor charges for fleeing police plus traffic violations. And here’s the twist: parents could also be charged under a law that holds them responsible if they knowingly let their kids break traffic laws. Police are still deciding whether to press those charges against the adults. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
