A few law enforcement agencies are looking to drones as they try to combat the growing problem of illegal dirt bikes and ATVs that have proven dangerous and deadly in communities across the Capital Region.
The latest example occurred just before 2 p.m. Thursday in Schenectady when a dirt bike rider speeding the wrong way on Cutler Street in the Mont Pleasant neighborhood died after the bike slammed into the rear of a moving car and he was thrown from it, city and police officials said.
