A UA student was arrested for an outstanding felony warrant after police stopped him for riding a motorcycle without eye protection.Brian A. French, 19, a resident of Arizona-Sonora Residence Hall, 910 E. Fifth St., was pulled over at 4:12 p.m. Thursday at the intersection of East University Boulevard and North Cherry Avenue.
Although he initially told officers he did not have his license with him, a name check yielded a fail-to-appear warrant for two counts of theft in Maricopa County.
After being arrested, officers searched his wallet and found his suspended Arizona driver's license and a false Mississippi driver's license.
French was cited for the felony warrant, providing false information to law enforcement, possession of a fictitious license, possession of a suspended license, and driving without registration or proof of insurance.
He was taken to Pima County Jail to await extradition to Phoenix.
