ILLEGAL DIRT BIKE LEADS COPS TO ILLEGAL GUN IN DENVER

Denver police stopped an illegal gas-powered dirt bike running without a license tag or lights and discovered the biker was a felon illegally carrying a gun. The bike's serial number was intentionally obscured, too, preventing verification of ownership. "After positively identifying the suspect, officers learned that he had previously been convicted of a felony and had been arrested just months earlier for Possession of a Weapon by a Previous Offender," police said. "Once again, the suspect was found in possession of a firearm and was arrested for investigation of Possession of a Weapon by a Previous Offender," police said. The nighttime incident occurred on Oct. 28 at East Colfax Avenue and North Roslyn Street.
