A motorcyclist does a wheelie past an Allentown police officer seconds before crashing into a fence.

A motorcycle rider’s police-taunting stunt ends with a trip over the handlebars.

Three dirt bike riders reportedly had been riding through an Allentown neighborhood Sunday when police were called, reports LehighValley.com.

Witnesses said the riders used T-shirts to cover their faces as they sped past and flipped their middle fingers at officers.

Jeni Betancourt told LehighValley.com that one rider made several passes before a second patrol car arrived. She captured video of the rider pulling a wheelie past the first cop and then hitting a fence near the second patrol car.

Betancourt told LehighValley.com that the rider went over the handlebars and took off running. She was told the motorcycles had been reported stolen.
