Northern Va. teen on way to see Beyonce hit by dirt bikers in Baltimore

BALTIMORE – A Fairfax County high school senior is recovering at a hospital after getting hit by a dirt bike on her way to a Beyonce concert in Baltimore Friday evening.

The student, just a week or so away from graduation, went to Baltimore with a friend with plans to see Beyonce perform at M&T Bank Stadium.

While crossing a street in the 400 block of East Pratt Street along Baltimore’s Inner Harbor, she was hit by a group of dirt bikers.

Her father told the Baltimore Sun the group had come out of nowhere while they were in the crosswalk. He said his daughter suffered some “substantial injuries.”

He said she suffered bruising and bleeding on the brain but is communicating with family.

The paper also said Baltimore police do not have a suspect, but they recovered the dirt bike used in the hit-and-run in the northwestern part of the city.

Police are looking for any witnesses who had seen what happened.
