FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- A 35-year-old led police on a chase through Fresno and Clovis.

It started just before 11 pm on Thursday night near Belmont and First when Fresno Police officers attempted a traffic stop on a motorcycle that didn't have plates.

Instead of pulling over, the rider took off.

That was the start of a chase that would last 40 minutes, taking officers from Fresno to Clovis and back to Fresno.

Air support aided in the chase that ended in downtown Fresno on N Street near Tuolumne.

Police found the man at a nearby home and he surrendered to officers.

The driver was cited for reckless driving and not having a valid driver's license.
