An overnight slow-speed chase involving a man driving a forklift through a Sacramento neighborhood and onto a bike trail ended with the man's arrest early Monday. Wayne Mathern was taken into custody for evading and resisting arrest and vandalism, Sacramento police said. The situation unfolded just before midnight when officers saw a forklift driving down a main road in Sacramento, police said. Officers tried to make a traffic stop, but the forklift driver continued along the road, police said. "Yeah, he's clearly not going to stop," an officer could be heard saying over the police radio system. "So, I guess we'll just call it a pursuit." The slow-speed pursuit continued as the driver navigated through the River Park neighborhood at around 10 mph, according to the police scanner audio. As sirens blared through the night, residents in the area took to social media to look up what was unfolding and listen along to the police scanner."What's the industry standard runtime for a full propane tank on a forklift?" one officer asked. "Not very long," someone else responded. Other neighbors saw the strange scene firsthand."We were looking out our window, and we could see what looked like a forklift going fairly slow, just kind of casually cruising down our street here, Teichert, and then there was seven cop cars trailing behind it," Chelsea Leber said.Jennifer Blake laughed as she recalled learning why the sirens were going off. "I'm sorry, it's just funny," she said. "A forklift. I had no idea that it was going to be a forklift." Police said the driver rammed through a chain-link fence and then continued onto a bike trail, where he eventually became disabled. Mathern was then taken into custody, police said. It was not immediately clear how he gained access to the forklift or whether it was stolen.
