While officers were loading the seized vehicles, police said they encountered an individual riding a dirt bike in the neighborhood. Officers were able to seize that vehicle as well, bringing the total number of recovered dirt bikes and ATVs to four.

Police said none of the vehicles have been reported stolen.
