Pursuit with STOLEN Suzuki Katana - Fleeing motorcycle tries everything to evade, Trooper bumps it

[@PolicePursuits]

Trooper's Narrative: On September 21st at approximately 12:07 a.m. I attempted to conduct a traffic stop with a white motorcycle for improper display of license plate. After activated my emergency lights and rider pulled to the shoulder for a second, and then began to flee. I then activated my sirens and was in pursuit of the motorcycle. The pursuit turned onto US 71/College Ave southbound. We continued on College Ave. reaching speeds of 85 mph, going in and out of traffic and traveling the wrong way. We then took College Ave. south off of School Ave. to 15th St. where we were heading westbound. We continued westbound on 15th St. until reaching Hollywood St. The subject continued to drive recklessly and traveling the wrong way. The suspect attempted to enter an apartment complex and parking lot. At this time I was able to stop the fleeing motorcycle and bring the pursuit to an end without further incident. The suspect was then taken into custody. After running the license plate that was attached to the bike it was stolen out of Kansas. After running the VIN on the motorcycle it was also stolen out of Lauderdale Florida. Both items were confirmed and the suspect was taken to Washington County. Jonathan Wilson is to appear in Circuit Court for the following charges: Driving on Suspended, Speeding More Than 15 Over, Improper Lane Usage, Improper Display of Tags, Fail to Stop or Yield, Theft by Receiving 1,000 - 5,000 x2, Reckless Driving, Driving Wrong Way on One Way, Fleeing by Vehicle or Conveyance, Fail to Obey Stop Sign

Technically he didn't -- the bike "brake checked" him. He likes to ride the bikes bumper until it happens - bad riders eventually slow down and WHAM.

I am a very experienced rider and even on the fastest bike on the market I would never even consider running from the cops regardless of why! I like my body unbroken and as pain free as possible thank you very much. Having been in accidents at low speeds on motorcycles before I have absolutely no want or need to do anything that may cause me to get into a crash a high speed. Time in jail as a healthy person is always preferable to being broken and in pain as well as being locked up or dead. At least thats how I see it.
