(KNZA)-- Additional details have been released on a motorcycle chase in Brown County over the weekend.

Sheriff John Merchant says at about 10:30 Friday night a deputy on routine patrol noticed a group of 7 motorcyclists in the southbound lane of U.S. 75 Highway traveling at an excessive rate of speed.

When the deputy initiated a traffic stop, six of the motorcyclists pulled over. However, Merchant says the seventh fled in to Jackson County.

A short chase ensued and was terminated by Brown County within a few miles.

The suspect, 21-year-old Papillion, Nebraska resident Cody Hauschild, was stopped in Holton by Jackson County authorities.

Traffic citations were issued to the six motorcyclists stopped in Brown County for driving 94 miles an hour in a 65 mile per hour zone and exhibition of speed.

Merchant says a deputy went to Holton and issued Hauschild a citation for speeding and fleeing or attempting to elude.   In addition, he was arrested by Jackson County authorities on charges in their county.
