A speeding motorcyclist who was being tracked by a Los Angeles Police Department helicopter was killed in a brutal head-on crash during the chase.

The unidentified cyclist was speeding down Roscoe Boulevard in West Hills, Calif. at about 1 p.m. on Thursday before slamming head-on into a vehicle making a left turn.

Cops initially ran the license plate and determined the motorcycle was stolen, LAPD spokesman Sgt. Bruce Borihanh told the Post.

The officers then called on an LAPD helicopter to track the motorcyclist, who took off at a high speed.

Was he vaccinated and wearing an N95 mask?

Imagine how worse it’d have been had he not had those jabs and boosters?

"“I can fly?”"

That's all the time he had to think as he pinwheeled through the air.

In some of the better quality video going around it looks kind of like his neck snapped and his head and helmet flew off before he even made a landing. I have been to several motorcycle “accidents” where we spent a considerable amount of time trying to find all the missing pieces of the body. I am pretty sure this one was one of those.

There is an angle on tik-Tok from where the body came to rest. It wasn’t intact from what I can tell. I got the video from a text but can’t find it or I would post the link. Any way, no loss, except for the folks in that car.

He should have just pulled over... He would have gotten released the same day for free.
