BOSTON — Boston police arrested one person and towed 10 off-road vehicles during an enforcement operation in Roxbury on Nov. 2 that focused on motorcycles, scooters and mopeds, the department said.

Officers and detectives from District B-2, the department's Roxbury district, worked with Boston Housing Authority officers on the operation, which police called Operation Kickstand. The department said it was organized in response to continuing public safety concerns about the use and storage of such vehicles in the Dorchester and Roxbury neighborhoods.

The 10 vehicles were towed for violations of traffic laws, police said. The department did not say what those violations were.

Police did not identify the person who was arrested or say what charges the person faces. Any charges are allegations, and the person is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.

The department said it plans to carry out similar enforcement operations across the city.
