On October 26, 2015 at about 1PM, OSP was notified by the California Highway Patrol that they were in pursuit of a motorcyclist, northbound on Interstate 5 towards Oregon. At approximately 1:15PM, the motorcycle entered Oregon at a high rate of speed.
An OSP Trooper attempted to pull over the motorcyclist but he failed to yield, continuing northbound on Interstate 5 at a high rate of speed. At milepost 3 on I-5, the rider drove through the median and drove the wrong way on I-5, northbound in the southbound lanes. Troopers lost sight of the motorcycle near the Siskiyou Summit.
At 3:30 PM, Troopers located the motorcyclist traveling northbound on I-5 near milepost 16. The rider began to drive recklessly and travel at speed of over 100mph. OSP terminated the pursuit when it exited the interstate and entered the city of Medford.
A short time later, the rider was located at a Shell gas station in Central Point stealing gasoline from a pump that had been fueling a motorhome. The rider was identified as Nicholas J ABEL, age 24, of San Jose, CA, was arrested. He was lodged at the Jackson County Jail for multiple counts of Felony Attempt to Elude and Reckless Driving. Charges will be pending in California.
