A Walkerton man was arrested Monday afternoon after Plymouth Police say he was clocked riding a motorcycle at 101 mph in a 50 mph zone on U.S. 30.
According to Plymouth Police, an officer working Operation Pull Over/DUI enforcement spotted a motorcycle that appeared to be speeding near U.S. 30 and Pioneer Drive around 3:48 p.m. on November 9.

The driver, identified as 41-year-old Jerry Moore Jr. of Walkerton, was arrested on a reckless driving allegation and transported to the Marshall County Jail.
