[NBC5|VIDEO] Thirty-eight-year-old Christopher Gaylor is in the hospital and expected to be OK. Authorities say the backpack he was carrying had a gallon of gasoline in it, which started the fire.
It happened Oct. 13 at 1:18 a.m. when an Arkansas State trooper tried pulling over Gaylor, who was traveling on his motorcycle. Authorizes say he had no license plate exhibited.
Authorities say Gaylor refused to stop and traveled at speeds up to 100 mph. Authorities say he ignored multiple traffic stop signs and traffic lights. He encountered another state trooper while making his way toward Interstate 30.
The chase eventually ended when he jumped off his motorcycle and took off running with troopers behind him. One trooper tried using their Taser to apprehend him, and that’s when Gaylor’s backpack burst into flames. [FULLSTORY]
