Police are investigating a crash that left one person hospitalized in the Denver metro area after a young rider was thrown from an e-motorcycle.
On Thursday night, Commerce City officers say a juvenile riding an e-motorcycle ran a stop sign at E. 119th Avenue and Jasper Street. The police department says the rider was struck by a vehicle and thrown from the bike. They suffered multiple serious injuries, but are expected to survive.

Police issued a warning to parents that these types of e-motorcycles are not allowed on city streets or sidewalks.
“Parents, this one’s on you. Please think twice before allowing your child to venture out on one of these machines where you know they shouldn’t be riding. We will absolutely cite you for that kind of negligence,” the CCPD said. “This was very bad, but it could have been even worse. We wish this young man a speedy recovery.”
