Arkansas Police Use “Love Tap” to Stop Fleeing Suspect on Motorcycle

Arkansas Police Chase Down Motorcycle Rider

A recent police chase in Arkansas ended with a motorcycle rider being apprehended after a high-speed pursuit. The rider attempted to outrun the police officer, but was eventually stopped and arrested.

The Chase

The chase began when Officer Dakotah Bailey of the Arkansas State Police attempted to pull over a motorcycle rider south of Little Rock. The rider immediately accelerated and began to flee from the officer. The chase continued at high speeds for several miles, with the rider attempting to evade the police.

The Pursuit

Officer Bailey pursued the rider in his Chevrolet Tahoe police car, reaching speeds of up to 134 mph (216 km/h). Despite the rider’s attempts to outrun the officer, he was unable to shake him off. Eventually, the rider took exit 9 on Arkansas Highway 530 and appeared to signal as though he was about to pull over or end the chase.

The Takedown

As Officer Bailey approached the rider’s motorcycle, he lightly tapped it with his SUV, causing the rider to lose control and fall off. The rider attempted to right his bike, but ultimately ended up in a bush. Officer Bailey then arrested the rider and took him into custody.

The Aftermath

After the chase, Officer Bailey mocked the rider for being unable to outrun a police SUV. The rider was charged with multiple traffic violations and taken to jail. This incident serves as a reminder that attempting to outrun the police is never a good idea.

Conclusion

In conclusion, running from the police is never a good idea. This recent incident in Arkansas shows that even with a high-performance motorcycle, it is difficult to evade a determined police officer. If you are ever pulled over by the police, it is best to comply with their instructions and avoid any further trouble. Remember, the long arm of the law will eventually catch up with you.
