Pueblo, Colorado — On July 19, 2025, several community members called the Pueblo Police Department to report a group of motorcyclists driving recklessly on Pueblo’s south side. The Directed Investigation and Community Engagement (DICE) unit responded and located the group. Bodycam and dashcam footage shows the riders popping wheelies, standing on their bikes, and weaving between vehicles across multiple lanes. Officers say the trio’s antics brought traffic to a standstill on Northern Avenue, prompting a coordinated effort by the Directed Investigation and Community Engagement (DICE) unit to intervene. The arrest occurred at a red light where officers pulled one motorcyclist from his bike as the other two fled the scene. Authorities are using the footage not just for prosecution, but as a warning amid a growing trend of deadly motorcycle crashes in Colorado. With 165 motorcyclist fatalities reported in 2024, a record high for the state, law enforcement is stepping up its response to high-risk riding. “These stunts aren’t just illegal, they’re a matter of life and death,” police said, noting that reckless riders risk losing not only their licenses and bikes, but potentially their lives. Officers reminded the public that motorcycles impounded for such behavior can be held for six months, with all associated fees falling on the rider.
