Man dies in fatal motorcycle crash following pursuit
TEXARKANA, Ark. (KSLA) – Three motorcyclists led Arkansas police on a chase that resulted in the death of one of the drivers.
On July 21, at 1:02 a.m., the Texarkana Arkansas Police Department (TAPD) began a traffic stop on three motorcycles on the 3600 block of Arkansas Boulevard. The motorcycles immediately began to flee from the officers and a pursuit began.
As one of the motorcycles entered the intersection of Jefferson Avenue and Arkansas Boulevard, it crashed into a passenger vehicle that was not involved in the chase.
The driver of the motorcycle was ejected and later pronounced dead at a local hospital in Texarkana, Texas.
The driver of the passenger vehicle was treated for minor cuts and bruises on the scene.
TAPD has not located the others involved in the pursuit.
Arkansas State Police are investigating the crash.
