This is the moment Florida cops ram two teen suspects to a stop after they allegedly stole a pizza delivery car and led cops on a dangerous chase through the streets.
The car chase took place in Marion County in the US state of Florida on 20th March.
The police said the suspects, aged 17 and 16, are staying at their “Gold Star Hotel” after being busted for stealing a car and leading cops on a dangerous chase through town.
The driver of the vehicle has been identified as 16-year-old Keishawn Jelks. He was charged with Grand Theft of a Motor Vehicle, No Valid Driver’s License, and Fleeing to Elude a Law Enforcement Officer.
His passenger, 17-year-old Dontarrius Wise, was charged with Grand Theft of a Motor Vehicle.
The Marion County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO) posted the video on social media on 21st March with the message: “Two teenagers were arrested after stealing a pizza delivery driver’s vehicle.
“What you should do: Get a driver’s license, buy your own vehicle, and go on a Sunday drive. What you shouldn’t do: Steal a vehicle, drive it without a license, and flee from the police. Can you guess what these two did?”
The police said: “On Sunday, March 20, 2022, we received information that a pizza delivery driver’s vehicle, which was stolen while the driver was out delivering pizzas in Gainesville, may be in Marion County.
“Deputy Karr located the vehicle and attempted to conduct a traffic stop on the vehicle. However, the driver of the vehicle, 16-year-old Keishawn Jelks, refused to stop.
“Deputy Karr initiated a pursuit and, when Jelks attempted to get onto I-75 Northbound, Deputy Karr disabled the vehicle by performing a successful P.I.T. maneuver.”
MCSO continued: “Jelks and his passenger, 17-year-old Dontarrius Wise, were both detained. During a search of the vehicle, deputies located two pizzas in the backseat.
“Jelks was ultimately arrested and charged with Grand Theft of a Motor Vehicle, No Valid Driver’s License, and Fleeing to Elude a Law Enforcement Officer.
“Wise was arrested and charged with Grand Theft of a Motor Vehicle.”
The police added: “They were both transported to our Gold Star Hotel and then to the Department of Juvenile Justice to be held in secure detention.”
