MILPITAS, Calif. (AP) — Authorities have arrested the motorcycle rider suspected of filming and waving off a California Highway Patrol officer who was trying to stop him and other riders doing stunts on a highway.
The CHP says 32-year-old Guruardas Singh Khalsa, of Brentwood was arrested Wednesday at his home on suspicion of being an accessory after the fact and delaying or obstructing an officer.
Video of the daytime confrontation earlier this month on Interstate 680 in Milpitas shows a rider approach a CHP officer and motion for him to go away.
The officer pulls ahead, and the motorcyclist waves goodbye as another rider puts a fist in the air.
CHP Officer Ross Lee says the video, online postings by Khalsa and tips from the public helped lead investigators to Khalsa. It was not immediately clear whether he had an attorney.
