CHILLIWACK — A motorcyclist was detained by Chilliwack RCMP officers Saturday afternoon after he allegedly caused an accident on Chilliwack Lake Road and fled the scene, only to be captured and arrested less than an hour later.
The Chilliwack River Valley Fire Department was dispatched Saturday afternoon at approximately 4:45 p.m. for the report of a truck that had gone into a ditch on Chilliwack Lake Road, and a motorcyclist possibly responsible for that crash had allegedly left the scene.
Chilliwack River Valley Fire Department had taped off the truck, located near Auchenway Road and Chilliwack Lake Road, until RCMP officers were able to deal with it.
