Police are investigating, after a motorcyclist was injured during a police chase in the city of Erie.

Erie Police say around 9:45 Friday night, they were pursuing a vehicle, when the suspect side-swiped a motorcyclist in the area of 28th and East Avenue.

The biker was able to lay the bike down, and emergency crews took the motorcyclist to the hospital with what we're told are minor injuries.

It reportedly started with a stolen vehicle investigation involving a different vehicle, but when another vehicle entered the chase, they pursued that car as well.

Police are continuing to investigate.
