“After the assault, the minibike riders vandalized the motorist’s vehicle while his 10-year-old child remained in the front seat,” Tuesday’s statement added.

Henderson told the jury that he and his friends were riding their minibikes on Aug. 26, 2022, when a Jeep going in the opposite direction made a U-turn.

A longtime rider who had his first minibike at age 8, he’s logged thousands of miles on two wheels in Western Washington, many with local motorcycle groups he met on the social media platform Meetup.

He dabbled in minibike building and drag racing.

The sheriff’s office believes the boy turned his minibike into the path of the patrol car.
