The apparent PIT maneuver knocks the bike out from under the rider, causing both the suspect and vehicle to skid across the road into a passing lane and crash into a wall.

As the biker attempts to get up, an officer is seen charging towards them, leaping over the bike head-first and tackling the suspect back down to the ground in mid-air.

The dramatic move was captured by another rider from a second angle, who was heard exclaiming ‘oh s**t!’ as the officer athletically sprang over the vehicle and pinned the rider down.

The officer is seen jostling with the biker on the asphalt before two other officers rush to his side and help to restrain the suspect. The video then abruptly ends.

It’s not immediately clear why the police were pursuing the motorcyclist or whether any injuries were sustained in the incident. 

The rider, described by witnesses as a male from Orlando, was arrested at the scene.

A witness told DailyMail.com he had been riding in the procession for the charity event when he saw a 'pack' troopers rushing towards the interstate.

'I saw the troopers fly by and hit the rider,' the witness said, adding that he hadn't seen the biker do anything wrong to warrant the police response.

According to its website, FHP officers are permitted to use precision immobilization techniques – or PIT Maneuvers - when troopers in the pursuit determine that the fleeing vehicle must be stopped immediately to safeguard life and preserve public safety.

It's unclear whether the policy extends to incidents involving motorcycles.

A spokesperson for the Florida Highway Patrol has not yet returned a DailyMail.com request for additional information.

The two bikers who captured the chase on video are also yet to return comment requests.

The video has already drawn significant criticism on social media, with dozens accusing the officers of using excessive force.

‘This is insanely illegal and horrific. Like it makes me sick to my stomach,’ one viewer wrote on Instagram.

‘That cop bouta get charged criminally for ramming that biker. Uncalled for bro,’ added another.
