SAN ANTONIO – A motorcycle chase ended with a major crash that left the motorcyclist hospitalized with major injuries.
At about 7:55 a.m. on March 31, 2026, a deputy allegedly saw a motorcyclist driving recklessly along Culebra Road, near Roft Road on the far West Side.
According to the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office, the motorcyclist was traveling eastbound and was seen weaving in and out of bumper-to-bumper traffic between the No. 1 and No. 2 lanes.
The deputy activated emergency lights in an attempt to slow the motorcyclist as they approached the patrol unit, but the motorcyclist continued to pass the vehicle.
The deputy moved to the center median, activated sirens, and followed directly behind the motorcyclist, the sheriff’s office said.
Authorities said the motorcyclist looked back at the patrol vehicle but did not stop and continued moving between lanes of stopped traffic.
After seeing the deputy ahead, the motorcyclist cut across traffic and began traveling westbound on Culebra Road in an attempt to evade the stop, according to the sheriff’s office.
A short time later, the deputy arrived at a crash site where the motorcyclist had lost control.
The rider was found lying face down on the sidewalk and reported pain in the leg, hip, and back, authorities said. The motorcyclist was transported to a local hospital for treatment.
The sheriff’s office said the motorcyclist’s identification will be released once the magistrate process has been completed.
