(KNZA)--A Leavenworth motorcyclist who lead authorities on a three-county pursuit in late February has been placed on probation.

36-year-old Stephen Cox was sentenced Wednesday in Doniphan County District Court on charges of fleeing or attempting to elude a law enforcement officer and driving while license canceled, suspended or revoked.

Cox was given a 15-month suspended prison sentence and placed on one year supervised probation.

He pleaded no contest to the charges in May.  In exchange for the plea, seven other charges were dismissed.

Cox was arrested February 28th after leading authorities on a pursuit that began in Leavenworth County, traveled through Atchison County, and ended in Doniphan County.

Cox reportedly dumped his motorcycle and surrendered to authorities after coming to a dead end on a Doniphan County road.
