Both vehicles sustained only minor damage. At about 11:25 a.m. Clearlake Police Department (CPD) Officer Michael Carpenter reportedly saw a dirt bike motorcycle being ridden by two subjects eastbound on Davis Avenue, according to CPD Sgt. Rodd Joseph. Allegedly, neither subject was wearing a helmet as required by state law, and it is also illegal to ride a dirt bike motorcycle on a city street. Carpenter attempted to conduct a traffic stop; however, the motorcycle sped away from the officer at a speed reported to be at about 50 mph, Joseph stated. The motorcycle made a right turn onto southbound Boyles Avenue at the intersection of Boyles and 39th avenues. The motorcycle reportedly crashed into the driver's side of the pursuing patrol car in an alleged attempt to turn the motorcycle around.
