Description
An Arkansas State Police pursuit unfolds on Interstate 40 as troopers respond to a motorcycle pursuit in Saint Francis County, Arkansas.
According to the Arkansas State Police incident report, St. Francis County Deputies were pursuing a domestic violence suspect riding a motorcycle when the pursuit entered I-40 westbound. ASP Trooper Grady Pettigrew joined the pursuit near the 225 mile marker and moved into the primary position.
The motorcycle continued westbound on I-40, traveling on the outside shoulder at approximately 55–70 MPH. The report states the rider was not wearing a helmet or eye protection during the pursuit.
The pursuit continued toward State Highway 78, where the motorcycle attempted to exit and failed to negotiate the curve, leaving the roadway before coming to a final rest. Troopers and deputies then conducted a felony takedown and took the suspect into custody.
