At about 12:40 a.m. Aug. 21, a patrol officer spotted the man speeding by on a Harley-Davidson at Jeffco Boulevard and Riverbluff Drive, Arnold Police reported.
A 37-year-old Arnold woman was riding on the back of the bike, Arnold Police Capt. Robert Ruckman said.

The bike was towed and impounded.
At about 8 p.m. Aug. 25, the man went to the Arnold Police station requesting a release to get the bike back, and he was arrested, according to the report.
