The Storey County Sheriff's Office (SCSO) has reported the recent arrest of a motorcyclist who attempted to flee state police.
According to a deputy with the SCSO, at around 5:30 a.m. the Nevada State Police (NSP) were pursuing the reckless rider to try make a stop. The motorcyclist fled and entered Storey County, where NSP called off their pursuit.
The rider turned onto USA Parkway, where he was spotted by a SCSO deputy, who started a pursuit. They say the rider did a U-turn on Electric Avenue and headed back towards the interstate to try to flee once more when the rider crashed, suffering a broken wrist.
The rider allegedly had no registration, a suspended driver's license with no motorcycle endorsement and no proof of insurance.
The man was arrested by Nevada State Police and transported to a local hospital to be treated for his injuries.
He has since been booked into the Washoe County Jail on multiple charges.
