SO SELFLESSLY JUMPED IN TO INTERVENE AND HELP OUR GUEST. I COULDN’T BE PROUDER OF HIS
INCREDIBLE ACT OF CARE."
WOW, GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND.
WE WANT TO BRING YOU, LOUIS
AND KRISTI, SOME BREAKING
NEWS.
JUST GETTING THIS INTO THE
NEWSROOM.
YOU’RE LOOKING LIVE RIGHT NOW
AT A PURSUIT.
THIS IS ALL TAKING PLACE, AT
LAST CHECK, IN THE DORAL AREA.
WORKING TO GET INFORMATION ON
EXACTLY WHERE THIS IS ALL
HAPPENING.
RIGHT NOW YOU ARE LOOKING LIVE
AT SKY 10, THIS WHITE CAR THE
FOCUS OF THIS CHASE RIGHT NOW.
WE DON’T KNOW HOW THIS ALL
STARTED OR WHY IT STARTED OR
EXACTLY WHY THIS CAR IS
EVADING POLICE.
BUT WE CAN TELL YOU IT IS A
WHITE HONDA CIVIC GOING VERY
FAST, WEAVING IN AND OUT OF
TRAFFIC THERE.
WE DON’T SEE POLICE FROM THIS
ANGLE, BUT WE DO KNOW THAT
POLICE ARE CLOSE BEHIND AND
THIS WAS ALL HAPPENING IN THE
NORTHBOUND LANES OF THE
TURNPIKE.
AGAIN AT LAST CHECK, THIS WAS
NEAR THE
NEAR THE DOR
NEAR THE DORAL AREA, BUT IF HE’S HEADING NORTHBOUND, EITHER FROM THE DORAL AREA,
THIS IS GONNA BE ENTERING
NORTHWEST MIAMI-DADE.
NO -- WE’RE WATCHING THE
SITUATION UNFOLDING AND YOU
CAN SEE THIS WHITE HONDA CIVIC
WEAVING IN AND OUT OF TRAFFIC.
WE’RE UNDERSTANDING THE
INFORMATION WE’RE GET INGTING F
OUR NEWS TEFK IS THIS IS A
POSSIBLE ROBBERY SUSPECT.
AGAIN, NORTHBOUND.
THIS IS A 2019 WHITE HONDA
CIVIC.
YOU SEE A STATE TROOPER CLOSE
BEHIND.
THANKFULLY, WE DON’T SEE A LOT
OF TRAFFIC.
ALTHOUGH THERE ARE PLENTY OF
CARS ON THE ROADWAY.
THERE’S NOT EXACTLY TRAFFIC AT
THIS POINT.
BUT THIS CAR DEFINITELY GOING
AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED.
YOU CAN SEE PLENTY OF STATE
TROOPERS GETTING VERY CLOSE TO
THAT HONDA CIVIC AND STAYING
VERY CLOSE BEHIND.
AGAIN, WE UNDERSTAND THAT THIS
WAS IN THE DORAL AREA, THIS
PERSON HEADING NORTHBOUND IN
THIS 2019 WHITE HONDA CIVIC
THAT SEEMS TO HAVE SOME DAMAGE
TO THE TIRE ON THE RIGHT SIDE
THERE.
NOT ONLY A POSSIBLE ROBBERY
SUSPECT, THIS IS POSSIBLY A
STOLEN VEHICLE.
THAT 2019 WHITE HONDA CIVIC
POSSIBLY STOLEN.
SO THAT’S THE INFORMATION
WE’RE GETTING RIGHT NOW.
POSSIBLE ROBBERY SUSPECT,
LEADING POLICE ON THIS PURSUIT
ON THE TURNPIKE NORTHBOUND IN
A POSSIBLE STOLEN VEHICLE.
THAT 2019 WHITE HONDA CIVIC.
I BELIEVE JUST SAW A SIGN
THERE SAYING NORTHWEST 27TH
AVENUE.
--
AVENUE. -- >> YEAH, ABSOLUTELY.
THERE’S ALWAYS TRAFFIC IN THIS
AREA, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU’RE
HITTING 4:52.
WE’RE APPROACHING THE 5:00
HOUR, WHICH IS A HOT SPOT ALL
ACROSS SOUTH FLORIDA.
IF HE WAS ON THE TURNPIKE
HEADING NORTHBOUND, THAT’S
WHEN HE SORT OF GETS TO THAT
TURNPIKE EXTENSION WHERE
YOU’RE TECHNICALLY STILL GOING
NORTHBOUND, BUT YOU’RE HEADING
IN AN EASTBOUND DIRECTION.
>> IT’S MORE OF AN EASTBOUND
DIRECTION AT THIS POINT.
BUT I’M ALSO LEARNING THAT
THIS STARTED QUITE A WHILE AGO
ALL THE WAY DOWN IN SOUTHWEST
MIAMI-DADE.
THIS HAS BEEN TAKING PLACE FOR
A LITTLE WHILE HERE AS HE’S
BEEN WEAVING IN AND OUT OF
TRAFFIC.
AND BOY, THAT WAS A PRETTY
CLOSE CALL RIGHT THERE.
>> THEY’RE DOING SOME PRETTY
RECKLESS DRIVING RIGHT NOW.
YOU CAN SEE HIM WEAVING IN AND
OUT AND GOING ALONG THE SIDE
LANES THERE.
YOU’RE RIGHT, THERE IS SOME
MAJOR DAMAGE HAPPENING ON THAT
RIGHT FRONT TIRE RIGHT THERE.
FHP TROOPER RIGHT ON THIS
PERSON’S TAIL THOUGH.
>> YEAH, AND LOUIS AND KRISTI,
I’M GETTING SOME INFORMATION
FROM OUR PRODUCER HERE.
HE’LL HAVE TO REPEAT IT FOR
ME, WE DO UNDERSTAND IT’S
FLORIDA TAG LRK-LO1.
FLORIDA TAG THEY’VE BEEN ABLE
TO SEE.
AGAIN, A 2019 WHITE HONDA
CIVIC THAT WE UNDERSTAND IS
POSSIBLY A STOLEN VEHICLE
VEHICLEMENTED -- VEHICLE.
AND AGAIN, THIS IS A POSSIBLE
ROBBERY SUSPECT.
HE KEEPS GOING HERE, OKAY.
HE MAY HAVE JUST ENTERED THE
BROWARD COUNTY AREA.
IT STARTED IN SOUTHWEST
MIAMI-DADE.
NOW GETTING INTO BROWARD NOW.
LOOKS LIKE HE MAY HAVE GOTTEN
OFF AN EXIT HERE.
>> WE SHOULD ALSO TELL YOU
THAT WE’RE HEARING IT WAS A
POSSIBLE ROBBERY IN WEST PALM
BEACH THAT STARTED THIS WHOLE
THING AND THE CAR MAY HAVE
BEEN STOLEN THERE.
BUT THE CHASE ACTUALLY BEGAN
ALL THE WAY DOWN IN SOUTHWEST
MIAMI-DADE.
SO FAR, WE’VE ONLY SEEN THIS
ONE TROOPER RIGHT ON THIS --
>> THERE’S BEEN A COUPLE,
ACTUALLY.
WE SEE A POLICE HELICOPTER UP
THERE IN THE AIR KIND OF
HELPING.
THE OTHER TROOPER STAYING
BACK.
>> STAYING BACK A BIT, RIGHT.
>> THIS SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING
THAT IS DEFINITELY AFFECTING
OR HAS AFFECTED BOTH COUNTIES,
A CROSS COUNTY PURSUIT.
THE CHASE STARTED IN SOUTHWEST
MIAMI-DADE, BUT THE POSSIBLE
ROBBERY ITSELF MAY HAVE
ACTUALLY BEEN IN PALM BEACH.
THAT’S JUST STUFF WE’RE
HEARING RIGHT NOW.
CAN’T CONFIRM ANY OF THAT.
SEEMS TO BE A MULTI COUNTY
SITUATION TAKING PLACE IN THIS
MOMENT.
BUT WHAT WE CAN TELL YOU IS
VERY IMPORTANT FOR ANYONE WHO
IS AT HOME, MAYBE YOU’RE AT
WORK AND YOU’RE WATCHING US
ONLINE TRYING TO GET OUT THE
DOOR AND HEAD HOME AND THIS IS
PART OF YOUR COMMUTE, PLEASE
AVOID THIS AREA.
A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION
WHEN WE SEE SOMETHING LIKE
THIS. HE’S RIGHT NOW TRAVELING
ON THE SHOULDER HERE.
WE’RE STARTING TO SEE MORE
CARS ON THE ROADWAY.
HE IS WEAVING IN AND OUT OF
TRAFFIC, HAD A COUPLE CLOSE
CALLS.
BUT IT ALWAYS SORT OF MAKES
YOU HOLD YOUR BREATH AND
CRINGE AS WE WATCH THESE
THINGS UNFOLD.
>> IT’S ALMOST 5:00 HERE, WE
KNOW THE TRAFFIC IS JUST GONNA
GET HEAVIER AND MORE CONDENSED
AS THE HOURS GO ON HERE.
WE BELIEVE THE CAR IS
SOMEWHERE RIGHT AROUND THE
HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD AREA OFF
OF THE TURNPIKE.
>> YES, I JUST SAW THE EXIT
SIGN THERE, KRISTI AND IT DID
SAY HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD.
SO CONTINUING THAT NORTHBOUND
TRAJECTORY ON FLORIDA’S
TURNPIKE VERY WELL INTO
BROWARD COUNTY.
SEEING HOW FAR HE’S GOING TO
GET, BUT DON’T THINK HE’S
GONNA GET VERY FAR BECAUSE
POLICE ARE VERY CLOSE BEHIND.
WE ALWAYS KNOW WHEN WE SEE
THESE SITUATIONS THAT
SOMETIMES WE DON’T SEE THE
TROOPERS FROM THIS VIEW.
WE DID SEE AT LEAST ONE OR
TWO.
WE DO KNOW THAT A LOT OF TIMES
THEY’RE JUST WAITING FOR THAT
TIME TO MAKE THE RIGHT MOVE TO
GET THIS CAR TO START.
TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION ALL
THE OTHER PEOPLE OUT ON THE
ROAD WAY ON A VERY BUSY
TURNPIKE RIGHT NOW.
>> THIS DRIVER FEELS NO
APPREHENSION ON DRIVING IN
THOSE EMERGENCY LANES AT ALL.
WE SEE HIM WEAVING IN AND OUT.
HE’S GOTTEN VERY, VERY LUCKY
THAT TRAFFIC IS PLAYING IN HIS
FAVOR, THIS IS A VERY
CHALLENGING TIME.
FHP HOT ON THIS PERSON’S TAIL.
THERE IS THE TROOPER RIGHT
THERE.
>> I’M VERY CURIOUS TO SEE
ONCE THIS CAR REACHES THE
GRIFFIN ROAD EXIT.
COVERING TRAFFIC FOR MANY
YEARS HERE, I CAN TELL YOU
THAT AREA SEEMS TO GET
CONGESTED VERY OFTEN ON THE
TURNPIKE.
NOT FOR ANY PARTICULAR REASON,
OTHER THAN THAT TYPICAL STOP
AND GO.
I’M VERY CURIOUS TO SEE ONCE
THAT CAR GETS NEAR THAT AREA
IF WE START TO SEE TRAFFIC
SLOWING DOWN.
THAT MAY BE THE OPPORTUNITY
FOR TROOPERS TO MAKE THEIR
MOVE AND GET THIS PERSON OFF
OF THE ROADS.
>> POLICE ASKING BSO TO ASSIST
IN SURVEILLING THIS VEHICLE
FROM THEIR HELICOPTER.
WE HAVE AIR SURVEILLANCE
HAPPENING FROM MIAMI-DADE AND
AIR SURVEILLANCE ALSO
HAPPENING NOW FROM BSO TO MAKE
SURE THAT WE BRING THIS HIGH
SPEED CHASE TO AN END SAFELY
WITHOUT ENDANGERING THE LIVES
OF ANY INNOCENT RESIDENTS
THERE MIGHT BE ON THE ROAD.
>> SO MANY CARS ON THE ROAD
RIGHT NOW.
AT THIS POINT, THE NORTHBOUND
LANES ARE A LITTLE FREER THAN
THE SOUTHBOUND LANES.
JENISE, THAT IS LIKELY GOING
TO CHANGE THE CLOSER HE GETS
TO 595 AND DEEPER INTO BROWARD
COUNTY.
>> IT LOOKS LIKE HE MAY JUST
BE APPROACHING 595.
LIKE YOU MENTIONED, HE’S
RUNNING INTO A LITTLE BIT OF
LUCK WHEN IT COMES TO THE
NORTHBOUND LANES BECAUSE IT IS
WIDE OPEN.
BUT AGAIN, WE’RE SEEING THE
CONGESTION IN THE SOUTHBOUND
LANES.
JUST AN AREA THAT GETS
CONGESTED AS PEOPLE MAKE THAT
SPLIT BETWEEN THE TURNPIKE AND
MAYBE RAMPING UP TO 595.
LET’S SEE IF HE CONTINUES ON
THE TURNPIKE OR TRIES TO
CHANGE DIRECTION.
MANY TIMES THEY DON’T HAVE
DIRECTION, THEIR GOAL IS JUST
TO TRY TO EVADE POLICE.
HE IS APPROACHING GRIFFIN
ROAD.
>> WE KEEP SEEING THIS TROOPER
INCH EVER SO CLOSE RIGHT NOW.
THEY HAVE TO BE VERY MINDFUL
OF THE REST OF THE MOTORISTS
ON THE ROADWAY.
THEY DON’T WANT TO DO ANYTHING
THAT WILL ENGAGE THE LIVES OF
ANYBODY ELSE TRAVELING IN THE
SAME DIRECTION RIGHT NOW.
THIS IS A VERY PRECARIOUS
SITUATION.
WE CANNOT STRESS IT ENOUGH.
IF YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE ON THE
ROADWAY, STAY OFF AND LET LAW
ENFORCEMENT DO THEIR THING AND
BRING THIS CAR UNDER CONTROL
AND GET THAT PERSON IN
CUSTODY.
THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.
GOING AT VERY, VERY HIGH
SPEEDS.
>> IT
>> IT LOOKS LIKE THIS STARTED IN THE DORAL AREA IN MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, MADE ITS
WAY TO BROWARD COUNTY.
WE’RE HEARING REPORTS THIS IS
A FELONY VEHICLE THAT WAS USED
IN THE THEFT OF ANOTHER CAR
OUT OF PALM BEACH COUNTY.
AND JENISE, THIS IS A 2019
WHITE HONDA CIVIC, CORRECT?
>> YES, IT IS A 2019 WHITE
HONDA CIVIC THAT WE UNDERSTAND
IS STOLEN.
THIS CAR NOW GOING AGAINST THE
FLOW OF TRAFFIC.
THIS IS WHERE YOU REALLY GET
ON YOUR PINS AND NEEDLES AT
THIS POINT.
COULDN’T SEE THAT INTERSECTION
SIGN.
SEEMS TO JUST BE DOING
WHATEVER THIS PERSON CAN DO TO
TRY TO GET AWAY FROM POLICE.
>> JENISE, REGARDLESS OF WHAT
WE’RE SEEING RIGHT NOW, IT
APPEARS THE STATE TROOPER IS
RIGHT BEHIND THE VEHICLE.
ONCE AGAIN, WHAT IS THE STREET
ONE MORE TIME?
31ST AVENUE NORTHBOUND RIGHT
HERE.
31ST AVENUE NORTHBOUND.
NO MATTER WHERE THIS VEHICLE
GOES, RIGHT NOW IS THE WRONG
TIME TO BE DOING THIS, GOING
AGAINST TRAFFIC MAKING THAT
LEFT TURN INTO A PARKING LOT.
THAT MAY BE WHERE THIS COMES
TO A CONCLUSION.
HOPEFULLY IT’S A PEACEFUL ONE
AS IT MAKES ITS WAY AROUND
THIS PARKING LOT.
>> LOOKS LIKE THERE’S SEVERAL
PEOPLE IN THE CAR, CALVIN.
>> SEEING AT LEAST THREE.
>> I SAW THREE PEOPLE GET OUT
OF THE CAR.
YOU CAN SEE THREE PEOPLE
RUNNING IN THE SAME DIRECTION.
POLICE
POLICE, NO DOUBT, WILL BE VERY
CLOSE BEHIND.
TWO PASSENGERS AS WELL AS A
DRIVER.
LOOKS LIKE NOW THEY’RE
SPLITTING UP IN DIFFERENT
DIRECTIONS IN THIS APARTMENT
COMPLEX.
>> SCARY TIME FOR THOSE
RESIDENTS, TOO.
THIS IS IN THE LAUDERHILL
AREA.
SCARY MOMENT FOR ANYONE LIVING
IN THIS AREA IN LAUDERHILL.
WE DON’T KNOW IF THEY HAVE
WEAPONS OR NOT.
YOU CAN SEE THE OFFICER
RUNNING AROUND ONE OF THE
BUILDINGS.
>> WE DID SEE A POLICE CHOPPER
WAS FOLLOWING THIS VEHICLE AS
WELL.
NO DOUBT THAT THOSE ON THE
GROUND ARE GETTING SOME
GUIDANCE, HOPEFULLY, FROM UP
ABOVE ON WHERE THESE THREE
SUSPECTS MAY HAVE ENDED UP.
THIS IS AN APARTMENT COMPLEX,
IT’S 5:00 ON A THURSDAY
AFTERNOON HERE IN SOUTH
FLORIDA.
PEOPLE MAY BE HOME FROM WORK.
>> OKAY, THIS IS 31ST AVENUE
AND 16TH STREET.
THAT IS WHERE THIS PURSUIT HAS
STOPPED.
IT IS NOT OVER BECAUSE THREE
PEOPLE DID GET OUT OF THE CAR.
NOW POLICE ARE TRYING TO FIND
THOSE THREE MEN, POSSIBLE
ROBBERY SUSPECTS IN WHAT HAS
BEEN A MULTIPLE COUNTY
PURSUIT.
AND YEAH, PEOPLE AT HOME RIGHT
NOW, YOU CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT
THEY’RE THINKING.
>> THE FEAR FOR THOSE
