DIRT BIKE does a "wheelie" - Arkansas State Police in pursuit. The operator has different ideas!

Trooper's Narrative:

On Saturday, 6/18/2023, I was patrolling southbound in the area of Geyer Springs Road and Interstate 30. I observed an
individual on a dirtbike traveling northbound on Geyer Springs. The individual was performing a "wheelie" while traveling past
me at the intersection with I-30. I turned around and activated my emergency equipment in an attempt to perform a traffic stop.

The operator pulled into a parking lot as if to stop but immediately began to flee southbound on Geyer Springs Road. The
operator turned into the parking lot to travel east into the rear parking lot of the ASP Headquarters before turning around and
exiting back southbound on Geyer Springs. I continued to chase until I lost sight of the bike near the Geyer South Shopping
Plaza.

Responding units were able to locate the suspect and continued to chase as it traveled northbound towards I-30 on
Geyer Springs. The bike turned westbound to take the on-ramp for I-30. The operator traveled on the service road before
jumping the gorge and traveling west on I-30. The operator traveled westbound for approximately a mile before taking the exit
for McDaniel Drive. The operator performed a U-turn in a field near the service road and began to travel east in the westbound
lanes of the I-30 service road. The operator was located again near McDaniel Road until he cut across a field and through an
opening in a fence to travel back toward I-30. Units then began to lose sight of the operator as he was traveling east in the
westbound lanes of traffic of Interstate 30.

After a short time, responding units were unable to relocate the operator on the bike
and the pursuit was terminated. The information regarding the suspect and vehicle remains unknown at this time.
