A person was parted from their motorcycle after Salmon Arm RCMP found the bike without a licence plate. 

While on patrol on 30th Street NE on Sunday, June 30, a Salmon Arm RCMP officer attempted a vehicle stop on a Suzuki GSX-R750 motorcycle with no licence plate in a parking lot.

"The rider began looking for an out but was boxed in by the officer and unable to escape," said Const. Andrew Hodges in a media release. "The rider was identified and determined to be prohibited from driving and riding."

The 42-year-old rider was arrested and issued a $598 violation ticket for no insurance. The motorcycle was impounded for the mandatory minimum seven days and the rider was later released from police custody with a future court date.
