ISP seeks public assistance to help identify the motorcyclist who fled on I-84

MERIDIAN, Idaho – The Idaho State Police (ISP) is seeking help from the public to identify a motorcyclist who fled from troopers twice during a high-speed incident on Tuesday, June 4, 2025.

At approximately 1:47 p.m., a black Suzuki Hayabusa motorcycle was observed traveling over 100 miles per hour westbound on Interstate 84 near milepost 46. The rider failed to yield when an ISP trooper attempted a traffic stop.

The same motorcycle was later observed eastbound near milepost 44. When another trooper attempted to stop the rider, the motorcyclist fled again—this time reaching speeds over 150 miles per hour. Due to extreme safety concerns for the public, troopers did not initiate a pursuit.

The rider was last seen near the intersection of Overland Road and Five Mile Road, and the motorcycle did not have a visible license plate.

“This rider didn’t just break the law—he put lives at risk. Fleeing at extreme speeds on a high-powered motorcycle like a Hayabusa shows a reckless disregard for everyone else on the road,” District 3 Patrol Captain Michael Winans said. “This behavior will not be tolerated. We’re asking for the public’s help to identify him before someone gets seriously hurt or killed.”

The rider is wanted for two counts of felony eluding and one count of misdemeanor reckless driving.

A photo from a nearby traffic camera shows the rider wearing a light-colored helmet, dark long-sleeved shirt, shorts, and athletic shoes. He appears to have very skinny legs, which may help in identification.
