"I feel terrible about the accident and injuries to the very people we protect," said Palm Springs police chief, Andy Mills, addressing the serious repercussions of the incident.
Witnesses described chaos as the officer, allegedly showing off by popping a wheelie, suddenly lost control of his motorcycle and crashed into spectators.
The crash disrupted the 32nd annual Palm Springs Festival of Lights Parade, an event that typically attracts between 80,000 to 100,000 people each year.
Authorities confirmed that all injured individuals were taken to hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries, including the officer, who might have sustained a wrist injury.
