The news station reports that a York County Sheriff's Deputy was on patrol when he witnessed two motorcycles speeding on Route 1 near Arundel.

Police say they originally clocked one of the bikes going 68 miles per hour in a 40 mile per hour zone. Police say after that, the rider of the lead bike, a 2007 Harley Davidson, rapidly accelerated into triple-digit speed.
