The cyclist was riding on the sidewalk, and ran a red light (a bit more justified to flag him down). He fled, eventually ditching the bike and fleeing by foot.

I hope the police didn’t screw up by performing an unjustified search.

Either he panicked, didn’t have the nerve to just take the ticket and act normal, he was known to police, or (this is the most likely when you hear stories like this) someone talked and this is a cover story for the informant, the cops set up a situation to force probable cause.
