Motorcyclist Christian Alexa Krishner, 21, of Watsontown, will face further court action on a felony charge of fleeing law enforcement plus five summary violations after he waived his preliminary hearing before District Judge Christian Frey.
The charges stem from an incident when Krishner refused to stop for a state trooper attempting to stop him for not having a license plate and failing to use his turn signal in the area of West Third and Locust streets around 12:30 p.m. on April 29, according to an affidavit. The trooper pursued Krishner onto Interstate 180 West, but ended his involvement as he watched him "weaving in and out of traffic at a high rate of speed," placing other motorists in danger, the affidavit stated.
The trooper was able to determine the motorcyclist's identity through other means, police said. Krishner is free on $15,000 bail.
