CHASE, B.C. — A Maple Ridge man is facing charges after he allegedly stole a motorcycle and purposefully eluded police.

Chase RCMP Cpl. Scott Linklater says on Monday, June 18, RCMP members were on patrol when they noticed a stolen Harley Davidson motorcycle travelling westbound on the Trans-Canada Highway.

“The rider did not stop for police and continued travelling on the busy highway. Police discontinued attempts to stop the motorcycle to ensure public safety.”

He says the motorcycle was later found in the Chase area and the rider, a 34 year old man police have yet to name, was arrested.

Linklater says the man was released with a promise to appear in court at a later date.
