A motorcyclist was arrested in the East Los Angeles area Thursday after a pursuit by California Highway Patrol officers.

The suspect was wanted for a speeding violation and led officers on a brief pursuit around 9:50 p.m. Thursday on the northbound Golden State (5) Freeway, a CHP spokesperson said.

The pursuit lasted around 15 minutes and ended when the driver was arrested without incident north of Riverside Drive, authorities said.

No further information was provided, but NBC4 reported that CHP officers originally attempted to stop two to three motorcycles wanted for speeding.
