BALTIMORE, MD—The Baltimore Police Department’s Metro Mobile Unit (MMU) successfully executed a search and seizure warrant, resulting in the confiscation of five dirt bikes. The operation took place Monday at a property located in the 2100 block of Druid Park Avenue, at around 1:38 p.m.

Detectives carried out the raid after community residents reported illegal dirt bike activities and environmental hazards, including the improper disposal of oil into community drains. These tips were channeled through the Dirt Bike Tipline. The warrant led to the seizure of several dirt bikes, some of which were mechanically reconstructed.
