“She’s very shaken up because after the accident, several other quads and dirt bikes showed up on the scene and were encircling her, so she was in fear for her safety,” he said.

Many other ATVs and dirt bikes drove by as police investigated the crash.

Riding an ATV or a dirt bike on city streets is illegal. Police did not arrest any of the other riders.
