(La Porte, IN) - A La Porte man was arrested after he allegedly fled from police on a dirt bike.

 

Chase Moss, 22, is charged in La Porte Circuit Court with Resisting Law Enforcement and other counts.

 

According to court documents, Moss fled at high speeds Tuesday afternoon from an officer who tried stopping him for speeding on the off-road motorcycle on Scott Street. During the pursuit, the officer twice lost sight of the dirt bike, disregarding several traffic control devices while being chased.

 

A short time later, police learned the driver with long blonde hair was known for doing stunts on the dirt bike in his neighborhood.

 

Police went to his home in the 1200 block of Scott Street after discovering where he lives and found the still warm-to-the-touch motorcycle inside the garage.

 

Moss was discovered to have an active warrant for his arrest on allegations of violating probation.

 

Officers began forming a perimeter around the house to try and take him into custody on the outstanding warrant when Moss came out of the residence. He was also charged with reckless driving and aggressive driving.
