KANSAS CITY - Kansas City isn't the only place in Missouri dealing with illegal sideshows and street racing involving dirt bikes and ATVs.

St. Louis Police say they arrested two dirt bikers, out of dozens, traveling in a group driving recklessly Friday night.

Police say they ran several red lights and posed a danger to themselves and others. When officers approached them, they took off on their bikes. That includded one rider who had just unloaded a dirt bike from a Toyota FJ Cruiser. Police seized that Cruiser.

Meantime in Kansas City, police are still trying to track down the ATV driver who ran over an officer earlier this month. The officer suffered serious head injuries and had to be hospitalized.

The suspect appeared to be on a black and green Yamaha Raptor 700.

Anyone with information on the suspect is asked to call the KCPD Assault Squad at 816-234-5227 or anonymously send in tips at 816-474-TIPS.

A $10,000 reward is being offered in the case.
