CHADDS FORD, Pa. — State Police on Thursday arrested two suspected members of the Pagan motorcycle gang in connection to a crash that injured another motorcyclist in Chester County last month.
Brian Blattner, 37, of Delaware County, and George Cwienk III, 51, of Montgomery County, were taken into custody early Thursday morning.
Both men were charged after an investigation of the alleged incident by members of the State Police Troop J Barracks in Lancaster.
The crash occurred shortly before 7 p.m. on Sept. 13 on U.S. Route 1 North between Independence Way and Ponds Edge Drive in Pennsbury Township, Chester County, State Police said.
According to police, the investigation determined that, prior to the incident, a group of motorcyclists wearing Pagans Motorcycle Club jackets passed traffic stopped in the left lane at a red light by committing numerous traffic violations.
Once they got ahead of the traffic line, police said, the motorcyclists blocked other motorists traveling north by slowing down and swerving into the left lane to prevent the other drivers from passing them.
According to police, a male motorcyclist tried to pass the group by moving into the left lane, but Cwienk swerved his motorcycle at him, forcing him to brake suddenly to avoid crashing into a concrete barrier or Cwienk’s motorcycle.
The near-collision caused the left lane to open up, and a female motorcyclist then tried to pass the group in the left lane, police said. As she accelerated, Blattner allegedly swerved his motorcycle at hers from the right lane, causing her to crash into the concrete barrier.
The woman was knocked unconscious and sustained serious injuries as a result of the crash, police said.
Cwienk is charged with aggravated assault, recklessly endangering another person and several other lesser offenses, according to police.
Blattner is charged with aggravated assault, aggravated assault by vehicle, recklessly endangering another person and related offenses.
State Police are still looking for anyone who may have witnessed the incident. If you have information that would help the investigation, contact State Police at (610) 268-2022.
