Essex County OPP is looking for a motorcycle driver after he failed to stop for police.

Police say at 3:28pm on June 13th, 2022, an officer from the Kingsville detachment was patrolling in the area of Main Street and Wigle Avenue in Kingsville when they observed an off-road motorcycle being operated on the road with no licence plate.

The officer activated his emergency equipment and signalled for the rider to stop; however the rider immediately accelerated and lifted the front tire off the ground performing a wheelie, and proceeded down the roadway away from the officer.

The rider and motorcycle are described as:

  •  Black T-shirt, shorts and shoes
  • Green helmet with sun visor
  • Smaller off-road style motorcycle
  • Red gas tank and front fender
  • White rear side panels

Anyone with information regarding this incident who can identify the rider is asked to contact the Kingsville OPP detachment at 1-888-310-1122. Should you wish to remain anonymous, you may call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS) or submit a tip online at www.catchcrooks.com.
