Houston, TX, January 6, 2024 – A dirt bike rider was injured Saturday evening following a crash with a Jeep Wrangler driven by an off-duty Houston Police Department officer near the intersection of South Post Oak and West Airport Boulevard. The incident occurred around 8:47 p.m. when the officer, who was reportedly on his way to work, was traveling northbound on South Post Oak and attempted to turn west onto West Airport. At the same time, the dirt bike rider was heading southbound on South Post Oak, resulting in a collision within the intersection. The impact sent the rider flying into nearby bushes. The officer immediately exited his vehicle and located the rider, who had sustained a serious leg injury. He applied a tourniquet to the rider’s leg before emergency services arrived . The injured rider was conscious and alert at the scene and was transported to a local hospital for treatment of an ankle injury. The officer was not hurt in the crash.

A serious incident unfolded on January 6, 2024, in Harris County—near East Wallisville and Haney Roads—when an off-duty deputy constable in a private vehicle equipped with emergency lights attempted to stop a dirt-bike rider. The rider lost control, crashed into a trailer, and was critically injured. Despite being airlifted to a hospital, he was pronounced dead soon after . While that crash resulted in a fatality, other recent incidents in Houston also highlight the unpredictability and danger of dirt-bike collisions. On June 1, 2025, a dirt-bike rider was killed after colliding with a pickup truck at Greens and Gears Roads in northwest Houston. Police confirmed the rider, not wearing protective gear, was ejected and suffered fatal injuries.
