ANGELINA COUNTY — A motorcyclist on his way to work was arrested Monday morning after leading authorities on a 100 mph chase that ended in a crash. Angelina County Sheriff\u2019s Office Lt. Bryan Holley said he was patrolling Loop 287 around 5:50 a.m. when he came upon Kraig Kilgore, 23, of Diboll, riding at 90-100 mph in the northbound lane.<\/p>\n
Holley said he stayed in close pursuit of Kilgore and watched as he hooked a left onto Spence Street, losing control of the bike. \u201cHe laid it over and the bike skidded across the pavement. Luckily he was wearing a helmet, but he had some pretty bad road rash,\u201d Holley said. \u201cHe was taken into custody, given medical attention and then taken to jail.\u201d<\/p>\n
Holley said Kilgore told him he ran because he was on his way to work and didn\u2019t have a motorcycle license. Kilgore is charged with evading arrest and was also ticketed for no motorcycle license and failure to control speed. Kilgore was released from jail Monday on a personal recognizance bond, according to jail records.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
