46 year old Richard Cooper was riding a motorcycle, reportedly without a helmet, when he and his female passenger were told to stop by the cops. Cooper did not stop and drove the bike into oncoming traffic on Peach Avenue and Richert Avenue.
Near Peach and Ashlan avenues, the motorcycle hit a truck traveling south on Peach, knocking the two people off the bike.
Cooper was not hurt and officers arrested him. The female passenger was taken to the hospital for injuries.
