Video from the June 17 pursuit and arrest shows the suspect riding a small motorbike away from an officer on a motorcycle. The officer was attempting to stop the suspect for traffic violations, according to the department.

The officer was able to keep close behind the suspect, and can be heard roasting him over the loudspeaker:

“I would stop if I were you. This is a really, really bad idea.”

“Okay. I mean we can keep going, but it’s a bad idea. Your face is on camera, I know you go to school around here, I’m gonna find you.”

“What’s mom and dad gonna say when they see your face when I show them this?”

“I promise I’m a better rider than you, too.”

“Oh look, I’m still here! Get off the bike. Get off the bike, or we’re gonna have big problems, bud.”

Video shows the officer stopping the suspect by blocking his bike against a bridge guardrail. The suspect received nine citations and had his bike impounded, according to the department.

“The lesson here is simple: if you see one of our Motor Officers, it’s probably best not to test whether your e-bike is faster,” the agency stated.
