ORIGINAL STORY: The Boone County Sheriff’s Department is looking into a motorcyclist’s past after a high-speed chase Monday morning.

It happened around 4:00 Monday morning when deputies say they tried to pull over a motorcyclist for speeding on Route B.

The motorcyclist took off, reaching speeds of up to 100 miles per hours.

After a few minutes, the chase ended when the motorcyclist tried changing directions at the intersection of Route B and McGee road. The motorcycle apparently spun out from under the driver and crashed.

Both the Boone County Fire Department and ambulances were on scene.

The driver was taken to the local Hospital for unknown injuries.

Deputies tell our ABC17 crews that they are still looking into the motorcyclists history.
