An Arkansas motorcyclist was engulfed in a "fireball" and is recuperating in the hospital after a state trooper deployed a Taser and it hit a gallon of gasoline in his backpack, authorities said.

Christopher Gaylor, 38, was struck by the Taser after he led Arkansas troopers on a chase early Oct. 13 in Little Rock, state police said in a news release.

The chase started when Gaylor was spotted riding a motorcycle with no license plate around 1:20 a.m. along Asher Avenue in Little Rock.

A trooper tried to initiate a traffic stop, but Gaylor “refused to comply” and kept on driving, reaching speeds approaching 100 mph and ignoring traffic stop signs and lights along the way, state police said.

Authorities said police later learned that Gaylor was wanted by law enforcement on outstanding warrants, according to the release.

Gaylor eventually made his way toward Interstate 30 and jumped from the motorcycle at a residence along Chandler Street in North Little Rock and ran away with troopers following.

A trooper then deployed his Taser to stop Gaylor. As the barbs of the Taser struck the suspect, “a fireball engulfed Gaylor.”
