Teens On E-Bikes Damage Upper Providence Park, Curse At Officer: Cops

UPPER PROVIDENCE, PA — A group of aggressive teens riding electric bikes harassed a woman and others in a park in Upper Providence over the weekend, police said.

The incident occurred in Black Rock Park.

When police arrived, they found the teens riding the e-bikes on the grass, which is illegal, officials said.

The group was wearing dirt bike-style helmets, and were told by police that riding was not allowed in the park. The teens did not stop and "mocked and cursed" the officer and continued to speed through the park, attempting to damage the grass, according to authorities.

When another police officer arrived, the teens fled onto Black Rock Road and headed east on Arcola Road at a high rate of speed, police said.

If you know the teens or have any information, contact Upper Providence Police at (610) 933-7899.
