Amboy man injured following high speed motorcycle chase with Rochelle police

An Amboy man suffered injuries early this morning following a high speed motorcycle chase with Rochelle police. The driver eventually crashed the vehicle on Illinois 251 at Twombly Road in Hillcrest.

The chase with police started on Route 38 near I-39. The driver of the motorcycle traveled eastbound and did not stop at several traffic signals and stop signs.

The chase continued on Jones Road and onto Tilton Park Drive. The suspect then traveled onto Illinois 251 northbound prior to the crash.

The male subject then ran from the scene. With assistance from the Rochelle K-9 unit, he was apprehended a short time later near a home on Erickson Road in Hillcrest.

The individual was transported by ambulance to Rochelle Community Hospital for treatment of his injuries and later to a Rockford Hospital. The injuries do not appear to be life threatening at this time.

Charges are pending against the Amboy man. He was driving on a suspended license.

Alcohol may have also been a factor this morning during the chase.
