A high-speed motorcycle chase ended in a horrifying caught-on-video wipeout on a Los Angeles freeway after an armed man who was allegedly threatening a woman shot and killed a responding officer Monday.
The rider sped past traffic on the 210 Freeway at speeds up to 170 mph before slamming into an oncoming car, wild aerial footage from FOX 11 showed.
Sheriff’s deputies were responding to a domestic violence report of an armed Hispanic man threatening a woman in the suburb of Rancho Cucamonga when the suspect began shooting at the officers, San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement.
“One deputy was struck and was airlifted to a hospital. The suspect fled the location on a motorcycle and was pursued along the eastbound 210-freeway,” it added.
The perp — whom initial reports said robbed a shopping mall — wove through afternoon traffic before taking his hands off the handlebars to adjust a backpack, the video shows.
That’s when he slammed into the back of a sedan — sending the suspect cartwheeling through the air and skidding onto his back before the bike rolled over him, a wheel seeming to miss his head by inches, the harrowing footage shows.
The car that clipped the motorcycle was being driven by an off-duty narcotics officer conducting a “legal intervention,” the sheriff’s department later clarified.
The footage seemed to show a gun lying nearby on the asphalt.

Hospitals don’t call motorcycles donorcycles for no reason.
Motorcycle Hooligans Ping!.................
Here is one where the motorcyclist gets himself decapitated during a police chase.
The officer had to choose which piece to cover first.

Maybe they should have sent a team of social workers to this domestic violence call. /s
OK,fellow Freepers...I know that many of you ride. You can save your "how dare you!" comments.
At least he was able to stay ahead.
Looks like the perp lived. Was hopeing he had the common decency to save the taxpayers a trial. But no.
The police officer died. The motorcyclist survived. It’s California. He will probably get up to 90 days in jail for this monstrous act.
Yeah I thought at first he hit the sedan at 170 but that was his maximum speed during the chase and not the speed at which he crashed.
“...It’s California. He will probably get up to 90 days in jail for this monstrous act....”
Naaa...they’ll run him as a candidate for one of their new gerrymandered seats. /s
Please,please tell me that that bleephole is dead!
San Bernadino and Riverside aren’t LA, he won’t walk but the democraps made sure that the will of the people is not followed when it comes to the death penalty. I would love to see the POS have a fatal event in the hospital.
Doesn’t sound so “horrific” to me. We don’t have to pay for a lawyer, trial, or jail for this person who killed a cop.
There are people who ride both motorcycles and bicycles out there who are a-holes and blatantly break the law as badly as any 4-wheeled motorist, even worse.
I had a collision with a guy some years back as I pulled through a long line of traffic to go in the other direction, and a guy “splitting the lane” (passing the long lane of stopped traffic as he drove on the double yellow line on a two lane road). The cop just shrugged his shoulders while interviewing me and said “Sometimes these guys just don’t think they have to obey the law.”
Many bikers have an attitude about motorists that is both fair and unfair, and the area where they are justified is that they are indeed often hit my motorists who don’t see them which is a hazard inherent in riding. But there are enough of cyclists and motorcycle drivers on the road who do things car drivers would not generally do that make a lot of drivers see them in a bad light.
The point is, it goes both ways, but most of the time we hear only about bike riders complaining about car drivers. The truth is, there are enough of each on the roads.
And it is even worse for bike riders now due to all the distractions people get engaged in such as cell phones. I know a guy who was the head of a Harley club with a very high end bike, but just gave it up completely. He said it was too dangerous to ride, and I believe him.
Would be a pity if one of his hypos had an air bubble.
How many times was he deported before Biden let him back in?
Horrifying my butt. He was doing what he loved: robbed a store, shot and killed a cop, beat his woman, and ran from the cops. I’m glad he was stopped so suddenly before he killed again.
I watched the replay on YouTube. Man, he was flying….he really did fly after hitting that car. Too bad about the cop…
When seconds count, social workers are weeks away.
